Hello all,

My OS is *Windows Vista Home Basic*.
I am using a laptop *Toshiba Sattelite A100 - 785*.

I am connecting to internet through *LAN*.
Everything used to work excellent for 1-2 months, but I had to
disconnect the cable for a while and after that my problem
started.

The computer finds the network, but it says "*Access: Local
only*". And it do not recieve any packets, only send.
I have read about many similar problems on internet, I tried many
things, but without result.

*The only way* I could connect to internet is when
*_I_set_my_network_card_to_work_10mbps_*.
But nothing more. I hope somebody to have some ideas.

Not using any firewalls, including the Windows one, it is turned
off.

Thanks.

Check the hub or switch port that the computer connects to, and also
the cable that connects the computer to the port. Try different ports
and cables.
