Hi, I am using my ipad to type this which is connected to the same modem via wifi. My ad works flawlessly, but my pc claims it's not connected to the internet. I have tried 2 different cables but that didn't work. I opened up the case and made sure all of the power connectors are secure to my msi z87 g45 mobo. Still to no avail. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks!
One more thing, instead of saying the modems ID in Networking, it just says Network 1. I am using windows 8.1
