Connecting to network works fine, but no connection to the interne
Hi, i recently bought an Acer Aspire 5920g laptop (with Vista Home Premium)
with which i tried to connect to the internet via wireless network. I have a Sitecom WL-154 router and at another adress i have a D-link router. With both routers connecting to a network works fine, but no connection to the internet can be established. I took my laptop to a friend of mine, who has a SMC router, and connected to his network where internet worked fine. Thing is, that with the Sitecom and D-Link routers I am able to see all computers in my network, but can not establish a connection to the internet. If anyone knows what to do about it, please help, I am totally at a loss what to do. -- Gerard Costermans

It turned out that the poster's router was not Vista-compatible. I'm not familiar with the Sitecom router but I would check with the mftr. to see if it is compatible and possibly if there are any firmware updates. Recent D-Links should be compatible but may need a firmware update. Check with D-Link tech support about your particular model.

I contacted both manufacturers, and D-Link gave me a detailed step-to-step
guide about how to manually set my ip-adress. I followed the guide and at last a connection to the internet is established. So it seems to be a vista bug, because all the other computers with XP on it, don't need to manually set the ip-adresses. Well, anyway, it works now, so thanks for the help. -- Gerard Costermans "Malke" wrote: Gerard Costermans wrote: Hi, i recently bought an Acer Aspire 5920g laptop (with Vista Home Premium) with which i tried to connect to the internet via wireless network.
