Hi once more... the lights on the router are on and there is one more PC connected to the router which works.... we have tried to swap the cable from the PC that doesn´t connect to the internet to all of the 4 ports on the router to see if that made any diff.. and swap the cables over to check for duff cable possiblities.. no luck there, but we have not installed the Ethernet drives from the MOBO disk...and will check if there is a red X or a yellow ! and get back..... thanks Gav

Hi again, we have done a reset on the router and checked that with the IP address was set to automatically find address but still no luck.....and still no lights at the ethernet port.....duff port on the mother board ????? when we installed XP we jumped over the connection to the internet as we wanted add the anti virus program before hooking up the internet cable to the PC..... can this give troubles...
