Partitioned Mac with BootCamp

[anon(631531)]

After using BootCamp on my Mac, i can't get an internet connection on the Windows side. Can anyone help? Thanks.

Did you install all the Bootcamp drivers?

Yes. On the Windows7 side, they say to plug an ethernet cable from my wifi modem, into my Mac. Does that sound right?

Not sure actually. I've never done it myself. Maybe it needs the Ethernet cable connected to the wifi modem to get some setup info. I'm not sure though.

Never done bootcamp myself either... you got nothing to lose by plugging in a cable...

This may help... https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2714398

I have windows 7 installed on my macbook pro with bootcamp and while I did not have to plug in an ethernet cable you do have to do a few things to get it to work.

Go into my computer, and you should have a usb plugged in from installing windows 7 onto the MAC. There should be drivers on the folder for you to install, some are for your wireless and LAN connection.

That was it. It was the drivers, but it's all good now. Thanks.
