Your right. In my case I have to remove the laptop battery totally replace and reboot.
The networking is on the motherboard.
I have read a ton of replies all to do with cross wired cables etc. This may not
apply often and wont help if there is a real problem but try it.
Remember to undo all the changes you tried to get it working.
Dont know if this is a firmware / hardware or combination of these problem but it
certasinly caused me some grief in the past.
