a cable is not plugged into the network adapter "local area connection"?
I have a compaq presario F500, with nvidia graphics and Broadcom wireless. It has been working fine untill now. I can no longer get on the internet it keeps giving me the error about the cable unplugged. I have updated all the drivers I have restarted my laptop. I dont know what else to do. I am using my sons now. do i need to replace the network adapter? What do i do?
Hi I don't know of cause, but it happens to my PC too, though only on a site which is unpopular with the government and Israelis, so suspect tampering, which could be my ISP, Tiscali, they have restricted access to the London bombing truth sites before. I don't know though. I will change my ISP asap, to find out.

I have that problem too, and the same laptop model. I'm starting to think the adapter needs to fixed or replaced...

I'm not sure what to do, but I've gotten the same issues with my laptop, the same model, recently. I'll try the suggestions, just saying that this is happening with multiples of that laptop model.

best thing to do is unplug all of the wires on your modem and leave it for a few hours, bloew the box and wires and attch it all together it should work - failing that u need to re install the disc that came with thw wireless connection.
