Default Internet and Network Problems

Installed Vista Beta 2 Build 5384 on my desktop in a separate partiton. It
installed perfectly and ran perfectly including recognizing my internet
connection and wireless network. I then received an invitation to download
and install Build 5536 RC1. I did this and had trouble getting my network
and internet connection recognized. I have cable broadband connected to a
router with two other computers connected via wireless network with the
desktop.

I finally gave up on RC1 and tried to reinstall Build 5384 and have been
unable to get it to install. After a day of f\rustration I finally
reinstalled 5536 and everything went smoothly but, although it says I am
connected to the internet, I am unable to connect to the internet with IE7.
I prviously had Firefox installed on 5384 and it worked perfectly. It also
does not recognize the wireless network or the other computers connected to
the desktop through the wireless network.

If anyone can give me a suggestion or two to try and sort this mess out it
would be greatly appreciated..

Default Internet and Network Problems

It was the Marvell Yukon card. I finally found a fix by going to the
Device manager and under the properties for the Marvell card there is an
advanced setting that needed to be disabled. I believe it was the IP4
Crosspost (something like that). I disabled it and everything worked
perfectly.
