    After installing Windows 7 I can no longer get online. The error message is 816 Port Closed or similar message. All cables are connected, with no problem as far as I know.
    What should I do next? (Already reinstalled ISP software)

    Hi MT

    Is fhis new clean install or an upgrade from previous Windows version? if upgrade then what version. of Windows? Is your Win 7 32bit or 64bit?

    Please post exact full message as it may help?

    Do you have any security software installed? if so disable and try again, do check especially if you have software firewall, even install them to check and check versions are compatible with Windows 7 and the xxbit used.
