Internet-Vista
I got a new computer, Gateway- GT5408, yesturday that came with Vista Home
Premium. I tried connecting to the internet, but it keeps giving me "limited connectivity". All other computers in my house that are connected to the internet works perfectly fine (these computers run on xp). I tried changing my own ip or letting it get it's own ip, still doesn't help. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance
