    Windows Vista refuses to connect to Internet, shows up but can't connect


    I installed Windows Vista recently and I can't connect to the internet.When I try and connect it shows an error, and when I click troubleshoot it says "Unknown Reason".According to Event Viewer, it says "802.11 connection failed due to unknown reason", and when I try ping it says Error 1231.I've tried the common commands such as ipconfig -reset, ipconfig -flushdns, ipconfig and more.I do have a small screenshot showing the error. It won't upload though for some reason.It is Windows Vista x64 SP2

    Can't connect to the Internet, local connection only??

    Hi guys,

    I have a laptop here that refuses to connect to the internet over Wifi. Ethernet works fine but once I try to connect wifi it only connects as a local network without the internet.

    I have tried a few different things like reinstalling the drivers, changing a few different settings in the registry but with out any luck.

    Can anyone have any ideas? i have the flu at the moment and I just cant think straight and I need this fixed and out the door asap.

    The laptop is running windows Vista 32

    *Toast :toast:

    Windows vista will not connect to the internet

    it's the router, he can connect to the internet without the router but if he tries it any other way he doesn't get the internet. It's odd because my computer runs vista and i do not have any problems with it.
