I am trying to help a friend.His dell inspiron laptop suddenly wont connect to the internet via cable or by wireless,it is running on vista home premium.I have checked control panel both adapters are showing as working ok & enabled.I have gone into a comamd prompt and tried ipconfig but it lists both adapters as media dissconnected.I have tried reinstalling both adapters,and reinstalling drivers to no avail.Ipconfig/renew doesnt work because itt says the media is dissconnected.I have tried to connect the laptop to my system with the ethernet cable off my pc( a known working cable) and I have tried to connect to my netgear wireless router as well but no joy.It as to be something to do with the message media dissconnected so apart from a reinstall is there anyway to fix it...help please...
