For some reason the ethernet on one of my friends MacBooks (late 2007) model stopped working. He was using it fine for a day over ethernet then suddenly it stopped working. Strangely though in the network preferences tab it says its connected but no browser can load a webpage. Any ideas?
Got a tip for us?

Ethernet says connected but not?

Check the modem. Is your friend's modem functioning? Can he plug in directly to the modem and access the internet? If so, it's probably the router.
