After being hit with 3 viruses (all cleared) my Internet drops after a unspecific amount of time.
Symptoms:
Pinging the Gateway shows no connection despite the actual connection to the Linksys wireless router being in tact.
The repair function states that it can not renew the IP address
Safe mode in Networking does not show the network card or allow connections (page not found)
Other computers in the workgroup can not connect
Steps taken to fix:
Restoring to an earlier date
lspfix
combo fix
winsockfix
Motherboard: ASUS K8N with built-in Nic card (tried to reinstall the drivers and the NIC disappeared and I had to restore to get the NIC card back-Device Mgr.)
