I currently have a Cable broadband internet service. I Have my PC (wired) networked (wirelessly) to my laptop. I was concerned about my wired PC's download speeds, so I bought a linksys LNE100TX card. Drivers installed very well and it shows up in my devices under "Network adapters" So under network adapters it still shows the intergrated "realtek" adpapter. If I disable it and connect my internet connection right to the "new" linksys card (that is now enabled) it should work on the fly; right? But it's not I am getting a "limited to no connectivity" message. Am I misssing something?

Any advice would be appreciated!

UNinstall the drivers for the old NIC card completely. then uninstall the drivers for the new NIC card and then start fresh. install the new linksys and then install drivers or whatever order they tell you to do it in. Then once you do that restart computer and make it connect like you normally do. If that doesnt work then run this program [url=http://www.snapfiles.com/get/winsockxpfix.html][/url] it will fix the connection and if that doesnt work then you may have a bad nic card.
