You can also ping your NIC by openign a command prompt and typing in ping 127.0.0.1. If this returns any negative results then you either have a bad NIC or bad drivers.

how can i copy/paste the results from computer to computer? Is the NIC the (NDIS6.0)?

Just hit ctrl print screen and then paste it in the forum

I have a Motorola modem thats connect by ethernet cable to a D-Link wireless router, but is only used as a medium to connect multiple computers to that motorola router through ethernet cables.

The connection is good given that i'm typing from my old computer with Windows XP. Plug and play and the internet works no issues.



Can this be an issue with the Modem or D-link router? Ethenet Cable? I can not think of anything else and with the Dell computer(s), microsoft and dell tried everything physically possible to try to un-install Vista, do this and do that with everything. Comcast did say that all their modems are Vista friendly and i even tried directly plugging the ethernet cable from the modem to the computer, bypassing the router and that didnt work. One comment that was made was that i had a bad IP address, which they tried to fix and that didnt work either. Please someone help me! Or im going to have to go with a brand new computer that has XP and not Vista. THANKS!

Just a shot in the dark, but are your sure that your ISP is compatible with Vista?
