Network Adapter

To enable:

1. Control Panel
2. Network and Internet
3. Network Sharing Center
4. Change adapter settings
5. Right-click on your network adapter and choose enable

If this does not work, you probably have a failed network adapter. If you have a desktop PC, you can buy fairly cheaply a add-in board that will serve this purpose and it should be quite easy to install.
