I am having some Windows networking problems.
It seems that my laptop can wirelessly access the router, configure itself, and connect to the internet fine.
However, when I connect the ethernet cable to it, it spends a short while trying to acquire network settings from the router, until it eventually concludes there is "limited or no connectivity,Firewalled".
It's the only cable I have. I tried hooking this up to my desktop (where it was origininally and working fine last night) and it has the same exact problem. "Limited or no connectivity, Firewalled", however, the green "connected" LED is on for my NIC, and Windows detects a connection of some sort.
In what might be a related matter, I was setting up Linux networking as well. The cable worked for me just this morning in Linux, but it eventually stopped working. Maybe the cable was damaged since I was disconnecting, connecting and dropping it so frequently?
Any thoughts on how to rule out a bad cable? (without having a spare?
)
