Right click on it and repair
If that don't work: make sure everything is connected correctly
If that don't work: restart the modem
If that don't work: try to access the modem using its IP address (Most of the time its: 192.168.1.1)
If that don't work: try another lead
If that don't work: Come back here and Ill rattle my brain a bit more ^^

Have you tried a new cable and a new port on the router or switch? How about reloading the network drivers?

[tdog1o1]

how do u do that

[JohnWill]

I figured the cable and the port on the router needed no further explanation.

Download the network drivers from the 3COM.com website for your NIC and run the installation.

Hi i was wondering were do i download the drive into the c:\ drive or in program files??? or somwherelse

[JohnWill]

You can just download it to the desktop, or perhaps create a folder in My Documents for downloads.

None of this is working it still says Limited connection or no connection. I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING
