Good Day all,
I recently upgraded from XP pro to Vista ultimate, and I can no longer connect to the internet via wireless. I have a Linksys WMP300N adapter (with most recent vista compatible drivers installed) and a Linksys WRT350N router, also with the most recent firmware installed (on an XP PC). I know the network is ok with vista, because my laptop on vista home basic connects fine. On my vista PC, I can connect to the network locally, but not to the internet. Everytime I connect to my "home" network, it connects to "home" and "unidentified network" at the same time, but if I disconnect either, they both go, and under active connections, there is only "home". When I attempt to diagnose the problem, it says that there are more than one active network connections running. I have disabled every other adaptor (LAN, Bluetooth etc.) but the wireless, and it still connects to the "ghost" unidentified network. I am hoping that since I was able to connect easily when on XP, and also since other Vista computers can connect, this will be an easy answer for someone?? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, s.d. |
