    Hi,
    I got my Asus M51Sn, two months ago and I started to realise when I plug in my internet wire to the laptop..It doesnt connect to the internet..
    The reason why I finally noticed this is because I always use wireless...Which leads me to my second question, I was at my lecture this morning and I tried to connect to the schools internet but it said "no networks found". It doesnt usually do this and now I am at home and it still says no network found..

    Anyone know why its doing this?

    I'm typing this on my home desktop

    Try reinstalling your LAN drivers and make sure your network card is enabled in your device manager.

    The caution sign means that there is a problem with the device or the drivers. The caution sign against "Intel(R) Wireless Wifi Link 4965 AGN" explains why your wireless connection is not working. If you open the properties of this, it might tell you what is wrong (sorry I can't remember what it says). But chances are reinstalling the drivers will fix it.

    I don't think you need to worry about the "6TO4 Adapter" devices. They might get fixed when you fix the wireless. I don't know what the last one is.
