I have two computers which share the same Billion 7402 Router/Modem, one has
MS Windows Vista Premium Upgrade from XP and works fine. The other is a new computer with MS Windows Vista Premium installed when purchased. This one does not connect to the Internet, until I Click on Start, Control Panel, Network and Sharing Center, Diagnose and Repair, then select Reset Network Adapter, I have to do this every time that I boot up this computer, I would appreciate help from some one. This appears to be a common problem, as it is talked about in many Forums, but no one seems to have the exact answer. aussietaff ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.
