    Vista network problem: can't connect to the network

    My vista has the following problems:

    I can't browse any web sites and connect to any IP/address through
    IE,Firefox,CuteFTP and other TCP Protocol programs when I stared Vista over
    about 8 hours in a sudden, IE repored "Can't find the server" in sudden, even
    127.0.0.1 can't be visited.



    But another XP-based computer can through Vista's ICS connect to the
    Internet when the HOST computer can't connect.

    The problem can't solve through disconnect/reconnect/log off, the only way
    to solve the problem is restarting the computer.Reinstall Vista/Uncheck the
    IPv6 Protocol is without effect.

    A Windows XP in the same computer doesn't have the problem.

    All of the UDP-based program can connect to the internet. No any report in
    Event Viewer.

    Network: ADSL (PPPoE by Vista), No virus detected by antivir.

    RE: Vista network problem: can't connect to the network

    Hi

    Having a similar problem using Vista Ultimate. On my system, I have a PCI
    network adapter and a onboard one.
    After booting up, my PPPoE connection is set to dial automatically. At
    first, it went just fine but after a while(nothing in particular happened),
    it just wouldn't log me in, just kept hanging at the "vefying username and
    password"(or other intermediat dialog box).
    I tried connecting the LAN cable to my onboard network adapter, redialed
    manually the connection, and everything went smooth.
    After a reboot, the same thing happened, it wouldn't dial the connection.
    Re-started the "process", re-plugged the cable into my PCI network adapter,
    redialed, and it worked...and so on and on and on...
    This never happened under XP.
    Any suggestions ?
