My desktop uses wired networking. While my laptop is capable of utilizing both wired and wireless interfaces. My modem is a TP-LINK ADSL + wireless router. Wired networking stopped working on both the desktop and laptop, while the wireless networking continues to work on my laptop. Tried using a different cable. Still no luck. Is there a way to check if there's anything amiss with my modem?
Thanks.
