Hi All,

I see tons of problems in this NG but they all seem to be Norton related.
So, I am a little different.

I just installed a Linksys WRT300N router. I have a wired XP desktop
computer and a wireless Vista Laptop. I set it up last night and everything
worked. I turned off the 2 computers and this morning I don't have internet
on the laptop.

I can ping both computers from each other and the XP desktop connects with
no problems. Vista has an 'X' between the router and the internet on the
network settings page. When I diagonse the problem, it says that there is a
problem, but Vista cannot fix it.

It says Local Only, IPv6 is limited.

I have unplugged everything. Turned on the modem, then router, then
computers. I have reset the adapters. There are no other routers in the
area.

Any ideas?

It worked before I turned it off.

Chad

Update:

For some reason, Windows Update seemed to work, just cannot connect to the
internet. I am unable to see if email would work because my email is web
based (hotmail). Live Desktop doesn't work.

I tried everything.

I talked to Linksys and what fixed it, was I had to change my settings to
static instead of dynamic.

Thanks
