    Ethernet connection problem. Local access only


    My internet connection just stopped working after my battery died and i
    re-booted my laptop. It is a compaq presario running windows vista
    basic. I am plugged directly into the wall but I cannot get a
    connection. It says i am connected to my network but with local access
    only. Can someone please help?

    Unplug your router, and modem from POWER...... wait about 2 minutes and hook
    them back up.

    Like I said... I am using a ethernet cable. Not a wireless router.

    Can someone please help with this issue. It is still not resolved.
    Unplugging my router did absolutely nothing. I have 3 computers all
    running of the hardwire in the wall . my laptop does not get internet
    and the other 2 do. Mine just says local access only.
