    Welcome to the forum. Its not clear what your saying remote access from what. You have a modem and a router connected to it?

    re modem cable not connected


    2 machines - remote now getting internet ok via a wi-fi adaptor - signal comes from modem another room.

    Main machine connects to router via cable but cannot access internet and no longer see internet icon on screen.
    Worked fine this am.

    Troubleshooting says that cable not connected.
    We tried another cable, and plugging the cable to another port on the modem.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Fixed - found missing internet icon. Turned off and turned on local network. working.
