Netgear WG111, Connects to Internet with Limited Connectivity sign

Hello All,

I am connecting to Router, but with Limited Connectivity. I am unable to get
online with Vista. Following is my Story:

• I have a XP Proff, I installed Vista (Dual Boot) on my machine, so that I
could work on both OS.
• I had a Netgear WG111 Wireless USB card. Even though it is not supported
by Vista, I some how managed to install WG111 drivers.
• And now I am able to connect to router, but it says LIMITED CONNECTIVITY
and I am unable to go online.
• When I boot up my machine into XP, it is working fine.
• But on Vista, it says Limited Connectivity.
• My network is WEP enabled, and I used my password to connect to it, it
connects but says LIMITED CONNECTIVITY.

Can anyone help me with this Issue.

Thanks in Advance.

What choice did you make when it initially found your
network-Public/Private?
Have you tried to run the Repair utility?

I initially said my network was private, so it did not bother to connect me
to the Net through my gateway...I then ran the repair tool, and when asked
again said a public network...My internet works now...

Re: Netgear WG111, Connects to Internet with Limited Connectivity

Yes, I tried all ways, but of no luck. I switched between Public/Private a
couple of times, but of no use. I even tried Repair utility, it's the same.
Any Ideas?

Thanks for your response Zack.
