OK... Can anyone please help me. I have a new HP with Vista.. internet used to work fine when was a Wired connection. I recently moved to a condo. I have the internet downstairs. I'm using a Netgear Wireless Router and my HP is upstairs. so I went and got a Wirless card and set it up and everything worked.. I got the internet and it worked fine. After Automatic updates (Cuz comp was off for about a month) It updated and restarted. after the restart it prompted another restart.. witch was odd but i did it. after the Restart my computer crashed.. windows Fixed itself on it's own and was back up in no time.. NOW my internet DOESN'T work.. I can connect to the internet with my wireless card. the card and router work Fine. my card finds 6 networks in my area. I can see mine and I connect to my Secured Connection and it identifies and Connects. It's says I'm connected but with Limited access.. No matter what I do It has Limited Connection. I've tried everything I kno of. I even went through 2 hours of a painful waste of time with Netgear's Tech support. Here is what confuses me. I can connect to the internet. I can use it also. I can use MY internet with my wireless card and connect and play my online games using STEAM. I CAN connect and Download on LimeWire, I CAN connect and use ITunes.. but thats IT. I cannot browse the Net. Internet Explorer and Firefox both do not work. My computer continues to say LIMITED connectivity. everything works but I cannot use the internet.. Why is it Limited and why can I do everything but browse??? If anyone can please help me let me kno. Should I put the Vista Disk that came with my system in and do a Windows Repair.?? the person from Netgear said it's something wrong with IE or my computer cuz in her tests in MS-Dos i could connect to yahoo.com and get replies.. I'm LOST and completely STUCK.. please help!!!
