hi all
I heavily need your assistance with this network problem.
Since 2 days i'm reading related thread but with no result. Fact is that i'm not very good in computer's so more advanced stuff i didn't try.
The history is :
had a dell optiplex 755 running under win XP and when recently my HDD died i decided to reinstall win7 32bytes (clean university provided version).
Everything went fine until this network issue.
All drivers seems fine and updated but not sure because dellsupport is not very transparent and apparently they only provide vista drivers for my system.
was unable to connect on my cable modem via ethernet nor on a LAN with another win7 computer.
hopefully i can acces internet connection via usb port on my modem (works fine).
so far i have tried
to update chipset drivers (dell)
to update intel 82566dm-2 gigabit network driver (intel)
to fix the tcp/ipv4 addresses on both computer
(192.168.1.101- 255.255.255.0-192.168.1.1)(192.168.1.102 -255.255.255.0-192.168.1.1)
*packets are sended and recived, i can see in computer>network both station but the unidentified network status doesn't change and i can not force domestic network(no access to menu)
disable both firewalls,
disable the tcp/ipv6 on both computers
some messing around i can even not remember...
please help me!!!
thank you
