Hi
thanks for all the threads that have got me to here.
However I have had no luck with a solution.
In a nut shell I lost internet connection last Thursday lunchtime - when I returned to my machine I had no internet. Checking I got the err 651 message. Checking windows updates I found that there had been an update, not windows, whilst I was away. I found that if I went back to a restore point I got the connection back. Since then I have spent hours of trial and error, and following threads to resolve the issue because after a few hours I lose the connection again. I am having to do my research and comms like this on my net book that uses the wireless broadband connection with no issues. Also my windows phone connects fine, so I know the issue is with my desktop its WAN Miniport PPPOE not allowing a connection
Firstly I am a complete novice
What have I done so far:
Kept rolling back to restore points
tried to create a new PPPoE - No luck
tried to copy in a new raspppoe.sys file (would not let me without the trusted installer and I did not know how to do this.
replaced the raspppoe.sys file from my system backup using the backup and restore software said it was successful but still could not get a connection
Followed the 'Go The Power Thread' to do the sfc scannow instructions, and did the SURT windows update hotfix
Attaching the files as requested- hope they are readable as I have to copy from desktop to memory stick and then to netbook, as wireless does not work either so cannot just send over network.
