wireless connection failed in Vista

Topic

New Reply

I have a Toshiba laptop with Vista Business Installed. Recently I have been having problem connecting to the internet using the wireless connection. The wireless connection works fine within the LAN and I can view all the network devices. However, it would not let me connect to the Internet. My other laptops (on WinXP) have no issues with the wireless connection.

When I tried ipconfig /renew, it always reported errors on the wireless part and cannot renew an IP for it. Wired adapter did get the IP though.

Thanks

Have you checked the router settings?
Have you removed the wireless connection, re-booted, and let Vista rediscover it?

My Toshiba does this just once in a while,

Don’t forget to unplug and replug the modem, router, (and in my case the Access point) and push the reset buttons.
This always seems to work for me…….

Good Luck…
