No network connections! Error 651

[Loosie]

Thanks, but… Plugging it in to the modem was about my first thought to finding a fix. As mentioned, can’t plug it into the modem! Computer doesn’t have ethernet(like big phone line) port. Modem only has ethernet ports for LAN. Apparently computer needs a dongle, which I don’t got. Ordered one off ebay… Currently searching house for a male/male USB lead, to see if I can plug it in that way, but this has not been forthcoming either! Attached are pics of the connections I have on my computer, as previously described… probably insufficiently.

Right, in scouring the house for appropriate cables(the USB to router didn’t work BTW), I came across a very old USB wireless adapter(about 1/8 size of whole laptop!) but it works!! I can now at least get onto the internet on the d**n machine! Hopefully that will make it easier to sort out.

The ethernet port may be in the back of the machine.

Use this…

Snappy driver installer.

Nope. Hasn’t got one.

Why on earth that had to be so difficult?!?! But thank Dog for PCHF, YAY for Snappy Driver installer - & why do other driver programs do NOTHING?? Thanks so much again Malnutrition! Now my daughter won’t have to take her computer to school with a clunky old dongle hanging off it!

Have been raving about you guys, to all & sundry, now your service is back up & running - hope you get lots out of it!

Glad to have helped.
