I installed WLAN driver and wifi is working fine. But, where can I find the LAN (Ethernet) driver for this HP notebook? Links??
[ <<All Control Panel Items > Network Connections > ] i.e. <ncpa.cpl> only shows two connections as below:
1. Bluetooth Network Connection
2. Wireless Network Connection
That's it.

Hi:
I don't see the ethernet driver listed on the W7 driver section for your notebook.
You need this ethernet driver...
This package provides the Realtek Local Area Network (LAN) Driver that enables the Realtek Network Interface Card (NIC) Chip in supported notebook models that are running a supported operating system.

If you are able to use the wifi adapter to browse the web, use the HP support assistant.
Run it to find the appropriate driver.
Hav you opened the Device Manager to find out which ethernet adapter is installed yet?
