2 days ago my internet connection came up with limited or no connectivity. i was connected to my cable modem via my on board network card, i went out and bought a pci network card, no joy, i tried a new ethernet cable, ive tried the winsock procedure, i've done the power cycle of the modem, i've tried to repair the connection. when i do the repair the connection procedure it seems to have a problem acquiring a new ip address, i can still connect via usb, but would like to be able to resume normal status.

Sounds like the modem is knackered - I would ring cable company and go from there.
