Excellent signal strength but limited/no connectivity
HI everyone,
Got a new laptop (VISTA) and already have a wireless router (netgear) in the house. We connected the laptop wirelessly with no problems yesterday and this morning. Then, out of the blue, I get a "limited connectivity" message even though the signal strength is excellent. Any ideas? Our wireless network is the only one that's listed "connect automatically" and we were connected to it yesterday and this morning with no problems. Help!

Its a bug in Vista. I had it.
Windows 7 works fine..... Therefore, shouldn't Microsoft publish a patch through their Windows Update tool for a known bug anytime soon? My integrated network card does the same thing as the original poster (network detected but not working--local only). I'm running the most up to date drivers and BIOS. The only way to solve this is to reboot the computer--rebooting the network card by using the Diagnose tool doesn't always solve this issue.
