when i connect my laptop thru LAN @ lan port using rj45 cable, it is not detecting any network or fast ethernet connection and when i diagnose the problem using the diagnostic page it responds as TURN ON YOUR BLUETOOTH... ip address detection is at auto assign...
i also checked if my laptop does support this lan port @ network adapter page in device manager but what was there is all about WLAN, i then try to check at bios set up if that port were disabled but what i found were LAN REMOTE BOOT ENABLE/DISABLE only...is this mean that my unit could not be used to this lan???
i tried to use another laptop with same cable connection and it works...is there any possible settings that i must do????
i desperately need help & i hope someone could guide me... thanks
my unit is: Amilo xi2428

It sounds like you might need to uninstall the drivers for your wired ethernet adapter and then reinstall them.

WLAN is your Wireless Network / Adapter. It has no effect on your Ethernet port. When you plug in the cable, you should see activity, i.e., there should be LED activity at the cable/port.
You have to first setup any network before it can be detected.
1. Control Panel, Network & Sharing.
2. Click on Setup a New Connection, then Wireless/Broadband (top selection)
3. Follow the instructions to set it up.
4. Once it's set, in the N&S window click on Network Connections.
5. Find the connection you just setup - highlight it, then click on Enable, then Connect. If you're connected to your Ethernet port via Cat-5e cable, it should automatically detect the network connection and the Internet.
