LAN not working (A8N-E) Orange light flashing

My comps internet stopped working while i was away, theo thers still work but mine doesnt. I've updated all the drivers and such, and it hasnt had a problem for a year.

Virus scanned, updated chipset (using a8n-e and onboard network)

Any ideas? The green light is just orange. Tried switching network cords and slots with working ones as well. All I did was reboot while it was working, and now it's not.

The amber light is normal. I have the same board and the light color is the same.

Have to go, but more to come.
