I have an old computer that used to have XP, during the years I upgraded to Win 7 and Win 10. This is an old computer and I need it to use XP because of some old SCSI hardware. I have lots of image files, so I found one from 2010 with XP and I restored that to my C drive.
I haven't had a problem with it connecting to my home network and the internet, but now it's not finding the internet or my local network. I have 3 computers wired together with LAN. The same LAN connection worked fine yesterday with WIN 10. Under Network Places Workgroup, I don't see the other computers.
When it tries to connect to my ATT Internet modem, it keeps dialing instead of connecting to the broadband in the usual way. It keeps saying redialing. It's using WAN MINIPORT PPPOE, and after trying to connect gets an ERROR 678. I'm sure I'm using the correct network user name and password. I just double checked it on my phone.
