This has been driving me insane. I have been using internet through a device (i think it's a router) using a cable. I have received a error message that says Network cable is unplugged and i have tried all my knowledge to solve this error but till now i cant fix it. There was no problem previously and this started a week ago. Also, there doesn't seem to be any light on when i plug in the cable. The NIC (network card) seems to be working fine cos when i install both old and new NICs, my pc recognizes it and i install the drivers. Below are the methods i tried.
1. Unplug and re-plug the cable.
2. Format and re-install windows xp.
3. Bought new NIC and install it.
4. Tried using different pci slot for the network card.
5. Checked cable and is working.
6. Power of the device (router, i think) is on.
None of the above method worked. Please help me... Thanks in advance.
Network Cable is Unplugged Error...?
Try resetting the router, most router have a reset switch at the back of the router. normally a paper clip will do the job press and hold the reset switch on the router for 15 seconds then release it and unplug the router wait 30 seconds and plug it in again.
if that does not work then they might be something wrong with the router port so try using another port. if all other ports dont work plug the pc directly to the modem. and see if that solve the problem, it should solve it. if after resetting the router and it still say network cable unplug then try it directly to the modem bypassing the router. and if that work and you can have internet then you will probable need to buy a new router and take back the nic card. good luck
if you need more help email me
Reply:Have you tried purchasing a new ethernet cable and replacing the cables? perhaps it's damaged; you said you installed the nics fine, so I don't assume they're damaged (the rods) but I do believe it's a hardware issue; try to replace the cables; and try with another PC, a laptop perhaps to test the line.
Reply:What about updated drivers for the card?
