Now totally hosed

[susandennis]

Windows is back and the c drive formatted fine but now I have no internet access at all. None. I cannot get the DSL router to hook up to my ISP and they are closed on the weekend. 

So, I am dead in the water.  I'm pretty sure I have all of the right info but the only time I've configured this modem was when I first got it and the guy from the ISP walked me through it and I paid no fucking attention. 

Fortunately, I get a very weak signal from one of my neighbors.  Too weak to do much but at least I have email and limited connectivity.  There's a mailing list I'm on that has about a bazillion members here in Seattle - many with the same configuration - I just sent a note out asking if some kind sole could call me with their setup info and maybe I can noodle my way though it. 

Then there will be a whole lotta work to do to get back set up again.  I may take Monday off.  Seriously.

I looked at my windows disc that came with my computer and I didn't see anything about a re-install, just a new install. Also, don't know where my numbers are. I guess I had better find them.

Good luck, but you will be nice and clean when you are done.
