    You can try this option to get your internet service started :
    - unplug the modem
    - start the computer
    - plug the modem again

    Make sure you have the fully updated drivers. And also check the connections and firmware and drivers installed properly.

    This is a normal problem face with the modem. you need to do is reset the modem and reconfigure it back, If it the same after that better contact your ISP and ask them if everything is working from their end

    Try to disable your firewall or your antivirus program that you may have install on your system. If you still face the same problem again on your system, then you need to uninstalled your antivirus program completely from your system and then try to connect to your internet service.

    In many cases this behaviour has been reported as the "SPI" bug in that Vista doesn't like to interact with routers that do Stateful Packet Inspection nor apparently does it like to work with Deep Packet Inspection, but only in some cases.
