Thanks for the come reply. I traced it back to the ethernet connection. The wire looked perfectly fine, but I removed and tried on another computer and it did not work there either. I tried another ethernet line pn the Dell and bingo and it worked fine. Go figure. This was a 25 ft length I purchased from Best Buy. I will take back to them and ask why.
