Vista - IPv4 and ipv6 not connected

I can connect Ok to internet/network with an ethernet cable but my wireless connection has stopped working. The wireless connection properties shows all boxes ticked and Ipv4 & ipv6 are set to addresses being automatically assigned. However the wireless connection status says that both of these are not connected. I have tried uninstalling the wireless driver, when it reinstalls the problem is still there.

Any suggestions?

Hey DW

First thing we could use is some info abt your sys specs, wifi card, and OS (32 or 64)

Ken

Machine is Acer Aspire 7720Z Pentium Dual CPU T2310
os is 32bit
wifi card Atheros Ar5007EG

This had all been working fine until a few days ago. I did install AVG 8.5 free edition last week as I had some sort of virus. This has been cleared up now, I think the wireless was working after installing AVG but I can't be certain

I am having the exact same problem. I completed a windows update, and since then I have been unable to connect to the internet. Both my IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity shows up as: Not connected, though both boxes are checked off and set to automatic. Does anybody know what I can do to fix this? Microsoft support is $59, and I can't get my computer to connect with an ethernet cable, so I'm at a loss here. Please help.
