What kind of internet connection do you have? Cable, ADSL, modem? Do you have a router, or is your computer directly connected (maybe to a cable modem)? Let's check out the network adapter's settings: 1) Go to Start and click on Control Panel. 2) Proceed to click View network status and tasks...

Is it an USB external drive, isn't it? It should be working without any additional driver, I guess. What happens when you connect it, is it not recognized? Do you have this for a long time, or is it brand new?
