Oh did I mention? COMCAST SUCKS? What can I help you with....I am by no means an expert but after all my issues I am getting pretty good..... What are the details...??? Well.... I can't get a standard Ethernet Connection with my Comcast cable. Every time I try to connect I get the Dreaded "Error 651" message. I get this message even when I try a USB Cable instead of the Ethernet Cable. I can access the net by a "Network Connection" which is designed to connect other PC's within my own home network. But because this is not a "Broadband or Ethernet" connection, my COD2 or COD4 games Will Not use this connection for online playing. There is no way to make it my default connection to tell my PC to use this for all applications. I have spent many an hour with Comcast & Dell on the phone with trying to fix this issue. After research online, it seems I am not alone with this problem. Thanks Awards

Fortunately, we can workaround the problem simply by renaming the original raspppoe.sys file to something like “raspppoe_orig.sys” copying a working file from a Windows Vista system. I found this.....It sounds and looks right.....it is a windows 7 error and the vista file is more stable.... Awards

Glad to hear you are in at least.... I actually had no luck with it. I am presently running as Admin and it did not help. I have a good friend in the PC Business & He says its my Windows 7 not giving access to COD2 to get to the net. One of the issues is the fact that COD2 is a 32 Bit Program & Win. 7 64 Bit systems have problems running older 32 bit programs. Thanks again for your help Awards
