No Modem? I just installed a 661gx7mj and am unable to connect to the Internet. After checking my system it indicates I have no modem. I was under the impression that there is a modem installed on this mobo. Can somebody tell me if it came installed.

you should connect your modem to the internet in order to browse or you should have internet connection

i have a belkin N wireless router model:F5D8236-4 v1 i have had it installed on my computer but it has since been wiped so there is no trace of me having it installed, since this i have moved home and ost the disk that came with it but i need to put the router back on due to my daughter having a laptop, how would i get the software for it if i have no disk?? please help!!!!!!!!!!!

Has your wireless router/modem been configured to your ISP's instructions.
You should also contact your ISP to get them to test the connection to your router/modem especially if you have a DSL modem.

Found this after some deep looking from blackberry itself: Good Luck

sound like u might need to find the drivers for the cable modem even tho it worked on another pc i would try this first

If the internet light is red it indicates that there is an error with the username and password
Check the username and password provided by your ISP
If still unable to connect reset the modem and then reconfigure it with the username and password and choose PPPoE connection type.
If still no success contact AT&T tech support to reset the password

Before you can use your linksys router again, you must configure first your AT&T modem under bridge mode. If the AT&T modem is already set to you may connect the devices (modem router and PC) must be switched OFF first.
after the devices had been connected,...
1) turn ON the AT&T modem first, wait for the DSL light to stay solid
2) turn ON linksys router,wait for the lights to stay solid
3) turn ON computer,wait for your desktop screen
4) try to access Internet Explorer

you may have to go and setup the modem through your O/S individual items

sounds like the internet connection is not setup to Ur modem. When u unplug it redetects the modem and connects. try uninstalling the modem from the control panel - system - device manager. keep the modem connected and reboot. U may have to use control panel - add/remove programs any programs the modem cd installed. on reboot use the modem cd only to get the driver and let windows control the modem.

really need more information to make an educated guess, but if this netgear is recently added, try using the control panel - add/remove and remove all programs for the netgear. Then control panel - system - device manager and uninstall the modem. Keep modem connected to pc and reboot. After it detects the modem use the modem cd to load only the driver. Let windows manage the modem.
