Troubleshooting a network is a multiple step process.
1. Establish that your modem is working properly, and plugged in. As per the diagram shown here:

  • Your "Cable link" light should be on (signifying that the outside cable is properly connected to the router)
  • Your "Internet" light should be on (signifying you have an established Internet connection)
  • And, most importantly, your "PC Link" light should be on (showing that at least as far as the modem is concerned, it is detecting that the computer is plugged in to it.
2. double check to make sure that the network cables are seated properly, and plugged in all the way. the PC link light should give you an indication for modem-side- the LED light around the network cable jack on the laptop should give you an indication PC-side.
3. check on your laptop for any security software that may restrict new networks from being detected and disable them to test. For example, Symantec or Mcaffee Firewall can sometimes block a "new" network from being detected.
4. Completely shut down the laptop and unplug the power cord from the modem. Plug the modem back in. Wait around 3 minutes for the modem to initialize and do it's thing- then turn on your laptop and see if this resolved your issue.
If this doesn't work, you may want to try other things, such as resetting your network, and removing/re-installing your network adapter drivers.

I have hooked up my computer to my surround sound system and now i get a loud buzzing sounds I have bought new rca checked eveything even hooled it up to a diff one ..then the tv I can't get rid of it..i...

The buzzing sound could be from what they call a Ground Loop.
This is cause by plugging in Hi Fi and computer devices etc. into different mains power sockets.
The way around this is to use a power board and connect all your devices into the power board and plug the power board into a single power socket.

How to hook laptop to home computer for internet

Easy! You need a wireless router. My recommendation is Linksys wireless-G (or wireless-N if the laptop supports it). Linksys routers are easy to configure and very durable. It'll run you $50-60 at any computer store (Walmart even has them)

Best of luck, and make sure you rate users who offer their time & expertise to you for free :)

Dead laptop

Does the green light on the charger turn orange when you plug it in? Because it might have been that you didn't actually charge it. The metal ring around the charger tip sometimes gets bent so that it doesn't make good contact. If you aren't getting a constant green or orange light when you plug it in, you might not be charging it at all.

That would be the easy fix. The real problem is probably much greater, because you probably know how to charge your laptop. The laptop doesn't need a battery to run, so if it doesn't start up while plugged in, you have an additional problem.

write back if you find that the simple things didn't work and you need more help figuring out a specific fix.
