![]() ![]() This goes for both the Wireless and the normal Cat5 wired. My notebook would come back online local and internet after being in local only for hours for no apparent reason and then just drop off and back into local only for no reason and there was no certain way to get it back online. Basically what it comes down to is that there is no guranteed fix for any of this. you can try static IP, you can disable IP6v, you can try entering your DNS, you can disable your DHCP broadcast, you can update your drivers, you can restore your computer, you can uninstall/reinstall stuff. Disable most of the Vista security stuff Disable User Account Control in Security Center Obtain an IP address automatically under TCPIP properties Automatically Detect Settings checked in internet options I STILL JUST GET LOCAL ACCESS ONLY WITH MY WIRELESS CONNECTION UNDER VISTA Under the network window, I also tried to tick a network location or workgroup. I just tried to set ID network to " This is a home computer" and rebooted. I get DNS automatically under TCPIP properties ( as with XP).Ī couple of days ago, VISTA managed to get internet with the "main wireless router" (SSID: Wireless - no authentication needed, signal strength: Good / Low). Other factors maybe irrelevant: / Sharing discovery> Network discovery: " On" / > file sharing: " On". Under Network and Sharing center > Customize the current connection > location type > i set it to " public". Under S ystem properties (right click on the "My computer icon") > Computer name > network ID > Join a Domain or Workgroup: I'm trying to keep the " This is a home computer" setting, but it goes back to " This computer is part of a business network" all the time, even after reboot. I suspect my ID network is not well configured. My laptop power plan is also set to "High performance". I also marked off security essentials like Firewall under Windows security center, to prevent any possible internet access blocking. I gess I'm a bit unfamiliar with this OS and do not master all its settings. It says: " Access: local only" and under Network and sharing center it says " unidentified network". VISTA DOESN'T LET ME ACCESS THE INTERNET, THOUGH I MANAGE TO CONNECT TO THE SAME ROUTER I used to get DNS automatically under TCPIP properties. I am not the administrator of these routers. I used to get connected " home-like" with XP to a " secondary wireless router" ( SSID: Wlancomtrend - no authentication needed, no work group, signal strength: Excellent), which gets the internet signal from a " main wireless router", plugged to the DSL line ( SSID: Wireless - no authenticatin needed, no work group, signal strength: Good / Low). UNABLE TO GET "LOCAL AND INTERNET ACCESS" UNDER VISTA, WHILE IT WAS POSSIBLE UNDER XP ![]() Thank you for your reading and possible answer(s), ![]()
