good day!

I'm having problems again with my broadband connection. Currently, I'm trying to isolate the problem by removing my wireless network and directly accessing the modem. But I'm having issues with my ASUS K40IJ Series laptop. When I connect to the modem it says "network cable unplugged" even though I'm plugged. I thought something was wrong with my LAN card, but last night I was able to access it again -although it took quite a few minutes for it to be recognized. The problem is not with the cable because I was able to make it work instantly with my other netbook. So this means the hardware problem would be on my ASUS laptop. Any trouble shooting suggestions? Driver says its updated. I'm using Win7.

Thanks!

PS >> I got it working after this post. I don't what I did other than I restarted my laptop while the LAN cable was attached. Apparently I needed to restart my laptop...
Any ideas?

thanks!

good day guys! as usual, i got a problem thats been giving me headaches for days now!
a brief background on the problem. a few days ago, my modem and router stopped working after a heavy rain and some lightning. they wont power ON. after calling the tech support for my ISP, they changed the adapter and LAN cable and it made my modem power ON. thinking the router got the same problem, i bought a new adapter. it indeed worked.

but the more serious problem came when i tried accessing the net. i cant get to the internet although i can connect to my wireless router. i called up the ISP again and they were able to make my internet connection work on a stand alone with the modem. but not with the router (they said they wont be able to fix it since its not part of their service anymore). im not sure what the tech did, but i was able to connect to the internet. as i have observed though the LIGHT INDICATOR for the internet activity is not lighting up anymore although i am accessing the web.

i tried various tips and suggestions including reseting my router and using two laptops at a time to rule out problems with the PC. i still cant get it to work even with the manual set up or using the set up disk.

i got a LINKSYS WRT54G2 router.

if this may help ipconfig/all shows:
