My NTL modem only works with USB.The ENET lights up on the modem and it says Connected on my computer but i can't receive packs,but yet I can send them?
It works fine on my friends laptop just doesn't work on my computer or my brothers...
Any suggestions?

Thanks for you're time.:)

Welcome to the forum :)
Have you powered off the modem and pc, connect the ethernet to the devices, power up modem, wait for lights to lock, power on PC?
