Addendum to original post
I have upgraded the firmware on the router to the latest version.
I have now installed a wireless adapter on the Vista PC and this networks
perfectly with my 2 XP PC's through the DI-614+ router. Which proves the
router is OK with Vista (am I right?)
However, I still have the original problem when I connect the onboard NIC.
ie Unidentified Network, Access: Local only
This is leading me to suspect that maybe the NIC is not compatible with Vista,
even though Vista is saying it is working properly. So my next step is
install a PCI NIC and see what happens. I will report back
