I have been unable to connect a router to my computer using an ethernet cable because when I look at the state of the cable network adapter it reports "Network cable unplugged".
The cable isn't unplugged and I have tried four different cables, but Windows still reports that the cable is unplugged. I have also tried connecting to two different routers with the same outcome. So the problem seems to be with the computer (HP desktop). When I look at the state of the cable network adapter (Realtek PCIe) it reports "This device is working properly". I have found this matter reported on several sites on the internet but no clear solution has emerged. It could be a problem with the socket attached to the adapter card but I would like to eliminate problems with settings or software before trying hardware changes.
Any idea?
Please help.
Thanks!
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
