I've got myself a nice Win7 mini-laptop -- a reconditioned Dell Latitude 2110. Can't get it to connect to the net so far -- it asked for my Charter username and password and accepted them, but just can't do it. Yes, I tested the net cable on the other puter -- works fine. This is a beautiful little machine but has a sort of cylinder running along the back bottom edge. Wasn't expecting that, don't want it -- but this machine has a touchpad (a must for me) and you don't find that on all of these by any means.

Ask Youtube, I'm sure some kid has a tutorial just for that problem.

Good luck with it.

Sure, there are 3 for Win10, 5 for wireless, one that types the info at a character per second (not including corrections), one that finds a different problem than mine halfway thru.....

Drivers seem to be fine on my machine. There are no yellow warning icons on either choice under Network adapters.

The puter recognizes that I'm plugging the ethernet in, it just can't connect after going thru the usual motions. The internet icon in the system tray does have the yellow warning triangle over it, so obviously I shouldn't have tried to log in.

I'm sure one of you has the answer at my fingertips.

After more dickering, puter tells me '"Local Area Connection" doesn't have a valid IP configuration. Not fixed' -- whatever that means. It's not the router -- it's working fine.

My Apple desktop is wired directly to algore's interweb, so I'm less than no help with laptops of any genre. Have you called Comcast to walk you through establishing a connection? I had to call TimeWarner for help when my router/modem failed and they sent a new one here.

The connection is fine, so Charter's doing its job (aside from only delivering a fraction of the bandwidth to customers it contracts to). Somebody here will have a substantive suggestion eventually.

Charter? I'm sorry I thought Comcast. Charter is the same as TWC, which will soon be ATT. Our TWC experience, except for the unholy monthly bill, has been excellent. A few months back, I got their new two-piece router/modem setup and it's really been nice. Down speed, which is all that I care about is consistently 225-235Mbps: fast enough for my purposes. speedtest.net is where I check it.
