Cannot access network & internet with Vista
Please could somebody offer their help or advice as we are stumped!
Back in February I purchased a new retail version of Vista Home Premium and installed on my PC with no problems at all. I have since purchased a brand new PC and again installed Vista with no problems. But we can no longer link the PC to our home network & access the internet. The other PCs in the home use XP and the router can see both my Vista PC and the other XP PCs but mine does not see the router. We use dynamic broadband and my PC came with an nVidia network card. So far we have tried......... Turning off all firewalls, virus software etc. Restarting the router Pinging Uninstalling/reinstalling Vista on my PC Looked on Vista website etc. Any assistance would be appreciated!

You need to slow down and focus your problem report. Which computer is the problem - your computer that you installed Vista onto, after it had XP? Or the new computer? http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2006/12/windows-xp-and-vista-on-lan-together.html http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2006/1...-together.html Is the problem computer getting an IP address? http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928233 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928233 What do you mean by "the router can see both my Vista PC and the other XP PCs but mine does not see the router"? How does the router "see" a computer? http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/06/background-information-useful-in.html http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/0...useful-in.html Try focusing your diagnostic activity more carefully. http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/08/solving-network-problems-tutorial.html http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/0...-tutorial.html -- Cheers, Chuck, MS-MVP [Windows - Networking] http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/ Paranoia is not a problem, when it's a normal response from experience.
