Hi, I've installed the MSDN download version of Vista Ultimate on a HP nw9440. No errors when installed. But I can't access internet or my SBS 2003 server... I have Zyxel P-334WT wireless/router/switch connected to an Zyxel router from my broadbanddel. Vista doesnt get IP address. It happens it gets dns and gateway addresses but no ip address, and it happens it gets ip address, but no dns and gateway address... I first installed Win XP on this machine, and everything worked fine. Then I formatted the disk and installed Vista...:-( Anyone have som ideas?

After having a very smooth install of upgrade to Vista from XP Home, I had
the same problem with Xytel router. After working with my DSL provider's tech support by phone, we were unable to secure an internet connection in order to reach Windows Update for patches and driver updates, suspecting the problem to be driver incompatibility. Had no choice but to clean boot reinstall XP Home and am currently awaiting word on new drivers before trying again.

I had to use tha Zyxel as a plain switch and the DSL providers router for DHCP - then it worked. Strange... I think Vista "couldn't talk" with the Zyxel to get IP...strange...
