It's a Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit OS on an HP a1730n, 3070 MB, AMD
Athlon 64 X2 5000+ @ 2.6 Ghz. The original setup (this all worked perfectly)
was three desktop one laptop systems only the HP is Vista the others are XP.
The LAN is operational via a DLInk Giagbit switch and the DSL modem is also
connected via the DLink gigabit switch. Then I added a router, connected one
port of the router to the gigabit switch, the WAN port of the router to the
DSL. Every body was happy any system was able to get to the Internet and
when Vista woke up from sleep mode the internet connection on the HP system
worked perfectly.
THEN I installed VPC2005 and Virtual Machine support including the
networking option. This was about a month and a half ago. Since that time
my system will not access the Internet via a router. Tried a new router, no
dice! I have since un-installed VPC2005, still cannot connect to the
internet via a router! It's been soooo long ago since this happened that
there is not an old enough restore point to go back to. If I revert to the
setup used prior to adding the router, all is well.
I am positive that there is some little bit to change somewhere that will
fix this problem. I have spent hours reading discussion boards, I have tried
setting up from scratchmany times, still no go! any suggestions?
