Hello,
I have tried to search and find soloutions to this problem but I cannot work it out and it is driving me crazy. Please HELP!!
I have the common problem... My vista wireless will connect to the network but only as 'local only' and not to the internet. This is rather strange because my XP desktop works fine and my Vista has been connecting to this for the last year with no problems.
So far I have right clicked on properties and disabled the IPv6, I have updated the driver of the wireless and updated the firmware of the router.
I have run ipconfig /all below if that helps:
