    Can't install NAV 2008

    I'm trying to help a friend install NAV 2008. He had NIS installed, but it won't uninstall via Add/Remove Programs. I downloaded and ran the Norton Removal tool numerous times both in normal and in safe mode. I disabled all programs in startup. When tying to install NAV 2008, it immediately...

    Router won't connect

    Plankton, we were never able to resolve the issue. I tried replacing the modem with the same model, spoofing the MAC address, nothing worked. If you come up with anything, please post back.

    Router won't connect

    Yes, I've gotten into the router settings and it appears it is not getting the ip from the modem. But I can't figure out why since it supplies an ip to the computer.

    Router won't connect

    Franklin, the router is set up for the dhcp connection and detects the modem during the config wizard. It has it's own ip address (ie 192.168.0.1), but does not appear to be getting an ip from the modem. Crowley, no firewalls setup on either router. These are both brand new out of the box...

    Router won't connect

    Not sure where to post this, but here goes... Tried to install a router to an existing dsl modem today and could not get it to work. The connection is Verison dhcp, and it works fine when the modem is connected directly to the computer, but when you put the router in the loop, the computer...

    Sounds like you're in for an o/s reload for sure. You can backup the drivers using this freeware utility. It works 95% of the time. http://www.softpile.com/Utilities/Backup/Review_14886_index.html

    No internet + No LAN icon + No device manager.

    Can you get to it from here: Run "devmgmt.msc" or "compmgmt.msc" Have you tried this: Run "mmc", File --> Add/Remove Snap-In, Add, select Device Manager and add it. Can you get to it from Safe MOde?
