Vista - Wireless Connection

Anyone experience problems with wireless connection where it shows me as
connected with a good signal but nothing can connect to the internet. Also
the internet map shows as internet connection is connected but the browser
or any other application can't connect not sure as why this happens.

If there is a work around for this would appreciate it.

Thanks

I had problems with this in build 5342, but OK again in 5365. May be
dependent on your specific drivers.

Same here, no problems in 5365, but I did get that in 5342.

Yeh, it's a bit of a tricky one at times. I actually brought a desktop
shortcut to the good ol' Windows XP networking instead to help me out with
tweaking settings:
