Have you tried switching it off and on again?

tell a lie, turns out the the connection isn't even working or showing on the list, the 1394 is something else

Re: LAN internet help
 

It shouldnt be trying to repair that mate, the right hand icon needs enabling. You might need to re install the drivers to get it to work correctly.

The 1394 is the firewire port iirc.

the right is the wireless, i want to use lan

Re: LAN internet help
 

Looks to me like you have no lan adaptor setup on your computer.

Go into

Control Panel
Then click on the "system" icon
Then choose device manager
Then expand the "network adaptors" section and grab a screen shot of whats in there.

I would reinstall the utilities on the machine as you're missing a port.

if its not there can it not be disabled through the bios menu on start up? i've had a look but it doesn't make sense to me, im sure it used to have lan adaptor
