Im THAT good!

I’ve just installed w7 and my drivers but I don’t have any internet so I can’t update or download any programs because of no internet, anyone know what the problem might be?

Yep check device manager to see if theres any yellow warning items also go to start and run and type in ncpa.cpl and press enter, in there can you see any wireless or lan devices, do they say connected? or limited or no connectivity?

might be that your provider has turned on MAC filtering, you should call em and ask about it, just say u got new pc and dont have connection

You mean that they are checking if its my pc that is connected and nothing else? that shouldnt be it imho

It might be mac address filtering, but if no ones set that up on your modem i doubt its enabled by default. If you plug another pc into that cable does it work fine? When plugged in try going to start – run – type CMD and press ok
then in the black box type ipconfig/release and press enter
then type ipconfig/renew and press enter
