Hello,
Thank you for your post.
In order to narrow down the issue, please answer the following questions
first.
1. Please open Windows Command Prompt and type the following two commands:
'ipconfig /all' and 'netsh wlan show all', then please send me the output
of these commands.
2. Please use Ping command (for example, type 'ping 192.168.1.x' in Windows
Command Prompt.) to check whether you could ping your Gateway IP address
from your Vista machine.
3. Please check whether the internet connection settings on Linksys router
are configured correctly, you may check whether other computers which are
connected to the router can access internet.
4. Please try wired connection on the same Vista machine and check whether
the situation will improve.
5. Please tell me the wireless settings configured on your Linksys routers.
By the way, you might refer to the following user guides made by Linksys
regarding how to configure Vista to work with Linksys routers:
Windows Vista Articles Listing (Please see wireless section.)

| Hi,
| I have a wireless issue with Vista I think, I have a basic network with a
| wireless Linksys router. I can connect to the router just fine and is
says I
| have great reception etc... But I can't get to the Internet, when I hover
| over the wirelesss connection it says that I have only a local
connection,
| is there a way to change that so I can access the Internet?
|
| Thanks Craig
