When I click on device manager in my computer > properties > hardware I get:

Other devices
- Ethernet controller
- Ethernet controller
- Multimedia Audio controller
- PCI Modem
- SM bus controller

all have yellow question marks to the left of them in device manager

when I ping 192.168.1.1 says:
Destination host unreachable.

Ping stats for "":
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost =4 <100% loss>
Something's conflicting with something. In your device manager, disable the mm audio controller and the pci modem, leave the sm bus contoller alone.

Reboot and see if you're still getting the yellow exclamation marks, then try to ping again.
