Re: Cannot browse internet on new Vista laptop!!

I thought about doing a firmware upgrade, but wouldnt i do that on the main
computer that the router is actually hooked up to?? I did do an upgrade a
couple months ago. You dont do that kind of upgrade on the laptop right?

I went into the command prompt, ip address for router is 192.168.1.XXX. So
I think thats looking ok........
There are so many others with this same problem I am noticing, What is up
with Vista??
