    I plugged my ethernet cord in and there are no lights and no response. Nothing pops up on my computer. I just moved to college, but it worked a couple days ago. Now it doesn't even read it.

    What's up with it? Cord for sure works.... can the ethernet jack be screwed up ?

    try going to your network connections and seeing if your ethernet is disabled.
