Hi, please be gentle with me as I have been suffering at the hands of ntl for quite some time. Just when I thought they sussed the problem another one pops up.
Okay until Tuesday I had used my Terrayon modem through the USB port. Kept losing the connection and my computer would crash each time this happened. Finally after about 4 visits all by different engineers with a different fix was told to use ethernet port. So I did. Great, no crashing when connection went down. Up until now I had used my computer as a host for 2 others on the network and without the R45 port couldn't. So went bought a new PCI card and fitted it. Now if I plug my modem into that socket it doesn't work and the hub doesn't work either. Spent last night fidlling around with various combinations and according to the device manager everything is fine with no conflicts. I use XP on all 3 computers and they are all less than 5 years old. Any ideas what else I can try please. But tell me in very basic language pretty please. Senior moment and all that.
