Internet connection problems
I've plugged into my laptop the LAN cable from my desktop computer and the
Internet connection works for a few seconds, then in Vista becomes Local Access Only, then drops...then works again for a little bit and so on. From my laptop, I can't ping the default gateway ( router's interface ). I've set up the same IP information , hostname & MAC address as on the desktop computer on the laptop, but it doesn't work. A possible solution? The router is under ISP's administration.

Internet connection problems
On the laptop, Ipconfig reports NIC's real MAC address, not the spoofed
one...after configuring it in device manager ( network address attribute in NIC properties ) and rebooting.
