Yesterday, the internet and phone at my house went out all of a sudden. Since this is an isolated outage, AT&T won't send a crew out to fix it until Monday >(
My neighbor's is working fine, so I figured I'd just take my PC to his house, plug it in, and everything would be fine.
WRONG!
All I did was remove his PC and put mine in its place. I have Auto-detect LAN settings on, but it can't make a connection for some reason. I ran ipconfig in command prompt, and it gave me an IP and a subnet mask(whatever that means) but when I go into network connections, the local area connection 2 icon says "Limited or no connectvity"
The worst part, is that even if I get advice, I have to write it down, unhook my neighbors pc, put mine in, try it out, then switch pc's again if it doesnt work to get more advice. Sorry if I seem demanding, but I'm very frustrated over hours of messing around with this. The more detailed and fuller instructions you guys could give, the better.
TYVM in advance!
