Local Access Only Problem using Vista & ethernet cable
Hi Folks,
I have a network problem using Vista. For many months now, I could access the internet on my work domain using an ethernet cable. I thought it was an OS corruption and restored it back to factory default. Sadly, that didn't work. I'm able to access everything on my network but I'm not able to get to the Internet. I've tried static address, pinged, IPConfig /renew, tracert (doesn't hop to my gateway for external adddresses but works fine tracert on internal addresses). When I take the laptop home and it connects fine to the internet. Any help would be appreciated!

Local Access Only Problem using Vista & ethernet cable
Hi There,
I figure it out. This is what worked for me: Problem: For some unknown reason, Vista stopped accessing the internet but I was still able to access cupcake02108.com's local area network. I restored the Sony laptop to factory default and still had the problem. After reading numerous postings and piecing together an answer. This is what worked for my case.... Resolution: Control PanelNetwork & Share Center Turn off File Sharing, Public Folder Sharing, Printer Sharing, Media Sharing Turn ON only Network Discovery Reboot and Pray I have access to the Internet!

Posting the results of ipconfig /all and nslookup here may help.
