| Network (in)Security Interesting hacks and cracks. Info on firewalls, TCP/IP, encryption, networks, and security. The ins and outs of the phone system, caller services, how things work, what's illegal and what's not, cellular phones, beepers, telephony legislation, the PUC, ISDN, taps, who's listening, and switches. Talking about phones, hacking systems, technical advice, and such is completely LEGAL in the United States -- it's covered by the First Amendment. What's illegal is conspiracy to commit a crime. So if you say something like "Meet me at 2am so we can crack a can" or "I changed my cell phone's number myself" you are criminally liable. Stating "You can crack a can by doing thus-and-so" or "If you wanted to change a cell phone's number, you could do it like so" is perfectly OK. Posting passwords, calling card numbers, or credit card numbers is forbidden on this network. Posting such info will get you booted off the net. |

 Reformatted my computer now can't use internet
I recently reformatted my computer and now I can't use the internet. I installed the drivers and everything works except for the internet. I have windows XP and a dell Dimension PC, if that helps. I know, I know don't laugh, please.

Wrong forum, buddy.
You should probably take the opportunity to install Gnu/Linux.

Re: Reformatted my computer now can't use internet
I'm not a windows guy but I know there's a network utility control panel somewhere. Open that and see it lists any network interfaces. If there isn't one then maybe you just forgot to install a driver.
If there is one, check to make sure its set up properly with your network.
Also a little bit more information about the layout of your network would be nice (are you wired, wireless, are you behind a router, are there other computers in your home, etc)

Re: Reformatted my computer now can't use internet
I am wired and use a router and there are multiple computers in my home that use the same router. Is there a way in DOS to access my network?

Boot off of a Ubuntu live CD and see if the network works. If it doesn't, it's hardware problem, if it does, it's a windows config problem.
If it is a windows config problem, I've seen a lot of times people have deleted or created new interfaces that try to get on the net with pppoe or other shit like that. Delete everything in your Network Interfaces list besides what you need. |
