I'll try to shorten this up. it's relevant to know that my power went out during a storm some months ago. After that all seemed fine and well, but about 2 or so weeks ago I stared having connectivity issues with my PC. The onboard nic is damaged and unusable fyi, and I have been using a PCI nic for 2years or so. The first problem was just reset the adapter and all good, from there it got to this point..
Nic says Lan unplugged with auto config, 1gbps and 100mbps. Used to connect with 10mbps, but now shows unidentified net/ 169.254. Ip
cmd prompts /release /renew and winsock reset = no dice, just another 169.254 ip.
127 self ping = good, no loss <0ms
Modem ping = general failure
Unplugged the everything, held power to drain and let sit for a day = no change.
Adapter uninstall and fresh drivers = no change
Gently massaging the case saying please also didn't help
Isp shows all green with no issues on their end.
New cat 5e and new cat6 cables.
Mobo= Asus P9X79
Nic = PCI Dlink dge 530t (awaiting new card)
Win7 home
Netgear CM400 modem wired to PC (no router
Any help would be great!! (Edited)
