I have an HP zt3000 laptop with the intel pro/wireless 2200BG adapter. I've
got a Netgear WGT624 v2 wireless router connected to my cable modem. I also
have another pc running xp sp2 connected to the router with a cable. After
installing sp2 (at least I believe that is the failure point). The wireless
connection works just fine on my side of the router. I can see the other box
on my network, transfer files, ping the router, etc. I cannot see anything
on the internet. IE says I'm not connected to the internet. pings get no
response, etc. When I attach the laptop to the router with a cable, the
internet is suddenly visible. Signal strength is excellent & I've obviously
got my wireless connection security set up OK since I can transfer files.
Can anyone give me a clue as to why I can't get to the internet via my
wireless connection, but can with a wired connection from the same laptop?
