ugh...noob question

[gOOters]

Bah, I am teh noobtastical! Anyhow, yeah, i suk at CS:S so I am gonna reformat to see if it gives me skill.

 

So...I reformatted, and my first step is to connect to thw WORLD WIDE WEB so that I can set up my Linksys and my drivers, etc.

 

Well...I CANT CONNECT!!!

 

 

So, I have a wireless internet provider (yes it looks like a freaking antenna coming out of my chimney) and I have a Linksys wireless router so my wife can connect on her laptop from anywhere on our estate (laff).

 

I am going to disconnect from the router and go straight to the box on the wall that represents my antenna. It has a little built in router, or so they tell me.

 

I have tried setting up an automattic connection through explorer multiple times. No dice.

 

Any advice??

 

TIA

Make sure you installed the drivers for your NIC after the reinstall.

fyi - the linksys does not run faster when you put any combination of monster or vodka in the tank.

thanks ZD! I needed to pop in my MoBo driver disk first so it could see the NIC. You were right!
