It just stopped working for no reason. I've had this mobo for about 7-8 months now. I know the ethernet is good since it works fine on my laptop. Is it my mobo or something else that could cause this?
Well ever since I built my rig it has worked completely fine with no problems at all. We had a thunderstorm the night it quit working (a few days ago). When I plug it in, it doesn't even recognize it. It's like there isn't even anything there.
check your device manager. see if its listed there and in working orde. when you plug the cable in do you get a green light up at all at the actual port?
that nic should work im pretty sure you can find less expensive ones but that one should be just dandy
The green light is only on for the nic card. Not the onboard. What should I look for in device manager? Is it the intel 82801 pci bridge? I have a wifi card that's working fine so that's not it.

according to that picture listed first. you are already connected to the internet by the forum display in the background. so im confused. whats the problem ?
by the way im only seeing a wireless network adapter in your device manager.
I am connected through my wifi card. I need to be able to use my ethernet because I am moving back into my college dorms in a few weeks and there is no wifi there.
And I have an intel nic in my pci slot that lights up when I plug into it. No idea why it's not listed and doesn't work.
take the wifi card out of the system. leave only the intel nic card installed. disable the onboard lan in the bios. when you boot back up. go into your device manager right click and scan for hardware changes. see if you can get a prompt to install the drivers for the intel nic card.
