Local Only Internet Connection

Posted by admin on May 15th, 2007

My internet connection was working fine but now I can only get a 'Local Only' connection to my router (BTVoyager). According to the Network & sharing center, the connection from my router to the Internet is down (red cross through the line). I know this is not the case as my Mums computer works fine on the same router (she runs XP still). I've reset the router, and reenabled my connection, but nothing works. Can anyone help me ?

    Hello guys. After 4 hours fighting with this problem trying diferent ways, tricks... I bought another router Belkin Wireless G f5d72304 in Compusa for $39.95. Nice , smooth internet connection , no problem. But read small piece of paper included in the box.p.s. Let me tell you almost $40.00 but you can spend rest of this time with your family.EggHeadCafe.com .NET Developer Portal of Choice eggheadcafe.com

    TA,I'm sorry you're experiencing trouble. If you find that connecting Vista to a working network causes connection issues, then you may have discovered that you have a router which is incompatible with Vista. Please try a new tool to determine the Vistacompatibility of your router. It's called the Internet Connectivity Evaluation Tool, and can be accessed at: microsoft.com/windows/using/tools/igd/default.mspxPlease post back with results/findings.Thanks "TA" wrote:
