I'll start by quickly saying I realize there's lots of these threads online, but none have seemed to help my situation so far.
I'm using an Aspire One Netbook (D250 I believe) with Win XP SP3. I can easily connect to my wireless network at home, easily use my mobile net stick, but fail to get use of the net when I try an ethernet connection (what is available at work).
I've disabled my wireless connection when using the Ethernet. Everything is set to automatic (IP address, etc.), I have no virus or firewall protection up at the moment, and my little icon in the bottom right is saying I have an excellent connection with 100 mbps, and I can see info being sent and received.
I've tried all the self trouble shooting... what can I maybe offer you to suggest what else to investigate/fix? Please keep in mind I'm quite illiterate with this stuff (relatively) and would need semi-step-by-step instructions.
Thanks a lot in advance.
