    Thank you brothers for looking at this thread.

    A few weeks ago, a lightning hit our house and burnt my router along with the inbuilt LAN card of my desktop.
    I use a Cable connection if you might ask. After I got a new router, everything's back to normal but I have another computer I mainly use for playing CS and other games. It keeps saying 'Unidentified Network'.

    1. Is this computer 'fried' too?
    2. How can I fix this?

    Help will be greatly appreciated.

    Specs of the PC which is used for gaming: Intel Core 2 Duo (2 GHz)
    2 GB RAM
    Nvidia GeForce 210 1GB
    An Asus motherboard, I forgot the name but it had the number
    1333 in its name.

    Happened to me or my friend's computer many times. Those LAN connectors fry very easily from lightning strikes.
