It should already be installed. Open Network Connections to make sure the ethernet card is enabled. There should be at least 2 diff net connections-wireless & ethernet. Change the port on the router that the ethernet cable is connected to. Change the ethernet cable and make sure it is firmly connected at each end.

From your posts it sounds like you are trying to share files between two computers. To do so you will need either a cross over cable or a router or switch. A normal Ethernet cable won't help. Please reply back with the equipment that you are using for your network. Are you just trying to transfer files from one system to a next or create a home network? What type of cables that you are using and if you are using a router or hub please reply back with the brand and the model.

Hi Terry, Thanks for your reply.
Yes you are right, i want to move all my data from one laptop to another and both are running windows 7. I have configured everything like the IP and Subnet Masks and i think everything is okay just except the network cable issue. I am using a cross-over network cable for this.
I am facing just one problem, the computers are not showing other computer in Network area. I bought the N5110 just a few days ago and i think it doesn't have any driver for the ethernet adapter and i have to find the right one for that.
I sent you a private message with my Service Tag Number so you can see which adapter i have in the machine.
Can you please help me out with the driver?
Thanks a bunch!

Where the hell did you find a RealTek PCIe FF Family Controller?
Google's never heard of it.

If you press F8 before 64 bit Windows 7 boots and select Disable Driver Signature enforcement then a non WHQL signed driver will install.

Hi
I just bought a Dell Inspiron N1550 in Japan.
Since the OS is in Japanese (and i dont understand japanese) i reinstalled an english version windows using my windows i purchased separately.
Now the issue once i did this, the driver cd that was provided doesnt install any. (cant believe couldnt figure that out).
So i downloaded the drivers off the website and everything works except.
1) the internet via the ethernet cable - i kept trying but doesnt work. so is there any specific driver that you can recommend to get this up and running. so frustrating that i cannot use my computer.
2) the bluetooth doesnt install...this i really dont care abt if it doesnt work.
3) the nvidia drivers given on the site doesnt install...not sure if that is a problem.
Please assist!!!

I have two Dell N5110 laptop with win7 64 bit installed on them. Now i need to transfer large data using LAN but the problem is that there is no LAN icon showing in change adapter settings.i have installed the latest Realtek RTL8111E Gigabit Ethernet Controller Driver 10/100 which is R292450 from dell website.someone suggested to install R302485 but neither of them works on both laptops. Now comes the interesting part. When i install the same win7 OS copy in Vmware virtually i see the LAN icon named as Intel(R) PRO/1000 MT Network Connection. Can someone help me solve why is this happening with a solution? Thanks in advance.
Note: i tried installing win7 from another copy but the result is same.the same copy on my friends Lenovo laptop shows LAN icon.
