You could use a wireless network adapter, but it's not as stable, and more expensive than a new cable.

You did not truly outline what "uncomplicated troubleshooting" you probably did which may have helped. yet in any case you may want to verify your router that can provide your information superhighway to work out if the person-friendly that shows connection with the WAN area is sweet if its blinking then its likely an difficulty such as your ISP. None the a lot less make constructive the cables are on tight and the ethernet cables are snapped in. If that doesn't artwork try pinging to a information superhighway web site. If it resolves the call yet cases out it would want to be a modem or router difficulty and also you may want to reset it or them (this suggests unplugging the device for fifteen seconds and plugging it back in do no longer hit the production unit reset button) If it says, "ping request won't be able to discover host" or something of that nature than you do not have any information superhighway by any skill because your DNS isn't operating. back try resetting both. If the reset doesn't artwork in both circumstances than your router is possibly tousled, to target this ping it round 100 cases (the command is ping -n one hundred **default gateway** the position **default gateway** is the IP manage of your router.) If it drops a wide quantity of packets than the router is tousled. If it doesn't reply in any respect then there is an danger that the router remains tousled yet more effective than in all probability the ping is being blocked and also you may want to ought to regulate the router to the position it accepts ICMP echo requests and verify out the try back. If it doesn't drop a unmarried one then your ISP is having subject matters and also you may't truly do any ingredient yet watch for them to fix them and probably call them for the prestige. also i don't have self assurance its the firewall on your community device blockading the web nor do i have self assurance its information superhighway settings (except you replaced them), because maximum operating platforms (abode windows, MAC, Linux and so on...) come preconfigured to allow information superhighway get admission to when you consider that maximum end consumers do not opt to ought to flow by skill of and open up the ports on the firewall. also maximum firewalls gained't block the ICMP reaction if it originated from the device the firewall is present day on. wish this helps good luck!

Get a new CAT-5 cable or have someone put a new RJ-45 connector in place of the broken one.

use tape to keep it in place - the sronger the tape the better or just buy another cable - ethernet cable (cat5) is pretty cheap.
