I am having a big network problem on my Vista computer. I just upgraded to
Windows Vista Home Premium from XP. I can access the network but I can't access the Internet (I'm using the Internet on my XP computer to post this). First, when I checked the Network & Sharing Center, it said there were 2 wireless networks, one was my network and one is a duplicate one that doesn't exist! So I tried disconnecting from the duplicate one, and it disconnected from the real one to! Whatever I do to either one happens to the other one. There's a big red X between the networks and the Internet, and when I tell it to diagnose the problem, it says that there are 2 active networks, one of which is the duplicate. So I tried hooking up a LAN network to my XP and trying to use the network through that one and access Microsoft's Vista technical support chat directly from the computer, but there was still an X and, even worse, 2 LAN networks! Eventually, I got the duplicate LAN off, and the X dissapeared. But, even though it says it's connected to the Internet, I still can't connect to it! Just now, the X flashed off and on, off and on, and then stopped flashing. Someone please help me as soon as you can! |

Do you know what happens at the end of the "Trial 30 days?" Thanks Martin |

I believe you still get to keep the basic network outline. Some of the other
features may go away. "Schrodinger's cat" wrote: "Ric Sterling" wrote in message ...
