I have windows xp, and my cable is plugged in and orange and i'm doing this right now and other stuff too so i'm connected to the internet. but i go into control panel or go down to the start bar and it tells me i'm not connected to the internet...what to do to fix that?Connected to the internet but it's not showing up on my home bar?
if you are just using an ethernet cable and a router-modem on XP, you can bring up an icon in the system tray (bottom right corner of your desktop) thus:-
click Start, Settings, Network connections
right click on whichever local connection is showing "connected"
left click on "Properties" and tick the box that says "show icon in notification area"
click OK and you should see an icon with 2 little screens down there at bottom right.
