Very sorry that this didn't work for you - know how you feel I had been
trying to fix this on my laptop for 2 months before I found this, and
had almost given up totally on Vista because of it.

One other things that I had tried along the way was disabling IPv6 -
didn't work for me but it seems a popular option to try.

Does seem that this problem is quite common in Vista & wireless
networking - wired seems ok though.
