Wireless not connecting to Internet. Access Local

I just bought a new Dell laptop that is installed with Windows Vista. I am
not able to connect my wireless to internet. It says access local only. I
have no problem when connecting using cable direct to Boradband. Never had
this problem with old laptop using XP. Please help.

Help

I have been searching for several hours for ways to fix the local access only for my sons computer. And I have tried all the fixes listed starting with uninstalling wireless driver then reseting ip then turning off one thing and manually setting ip to resetting the router. i also did the ipconfig part. I do not know what to do next. I am running Vista on a Toshiba laptop. the best i get is local access only.

Is it always Local Access or do you see Limited Connectivity sometimes?

Also, run ipconfig and see what your IP address is. When I was having this problem I was picking up a generic IP address... I think 169.something...

What security are you using? I was originally using WPA2 and had to drop down to WPA. What router / wireless adapter are you using?

First of all, you responded to the wrong post. Second of all, I have had similar problems to what is posted in this thread and had some ideas that may have helped the OP. I needed a little more information from the OP to see if this problem was similar to one I have had in the past. I may be new to this forum, but I'm not new to forums or networking. I was just trying to help here...

Your comment is way out of line and I'm not even really sure what you mean...

If that is the kind of response that people get from trying to help out, then I definitely will not bother posting anything here again.

You should take your own advice and Learn Some Manners!

If this is by chance a response for the multiple posts I made, reading those posts would have told you I ran into some problems. I hit post and received a page error (no idea they actually went through). I thought I could delete the duplicates, but I can't so I did the best I could by trying to let a forum admin know they were duplicates and could be deleted.

I have been around forums for a really long time now, and I have to say this is the first time I have ever seen a response like yours.... I really just don't even know what else to say!!!

Re: Wireless not connecting to Internet. Access Local

Here is the 1st abd 2nd of your 2 posts within 1(ONE HOUR);
I am NOT out of line; you are just an impatient loser!

I rest my case; the facts are below!!
Don't be a liar!

Alright, I have a lot of information to go through, so please bear with
me!

First, I have been searching for an answer to this problem for about 4
or 5 days in total. I have found many people with similar problems, but
I have not found an exact answer. I have tried a number of different
fixes listed, but nothing has worked yet.

I am running Windows Vista Home Premium. I have a WRT150N router and a
WUSB300N Wireless N USB Adapter. Now, here is where the interesting
part comes in. I have tried connecting the XBOX 360 directly to my PC
via CAT 5 cable, and the Extender is found. I then connected my PC and
XBOX to the router via CAT 5, and the Extender set up with the direct
connection, was found right away and worked perfectly. As soon as I
disconnect my PC and try to use the wireless connection, the Extender
cannot be found.

I've removed everything from the XBOX (as far as the Extender is
concerned) and started from scratch on my PC. I have actually gone
through and started every last service (that could be started) on my PC
(as a fix action from a post somewhere) and nothing new. I actually was
fairly convinced that I was missing some service somewhere, but now I
know that is definitely not the case. I have even tried an odd fix
where I move a file called "infcache.1" and reboot so the file is
rebuilt.

He explained how the two posts came about. Sounds reasonable to me.

He was correct: you need to take your own advice and learn some
manners.

Either that, or stop posting when you have a pint or two too many.

Re: Wireless not connecting to Internet. Access Local

You can't answer questions; you can only TRY to read them.
Loser!

I get a good laugh out of idiots like you; and so do the rest of us here!
Read your "fanmail" from your stupid posts, loser!

Here is a CLASSIC post of yours:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"You and they are obviously members of a select community of folks with
f***ed-up computers.

The vast majority of those who've updated (I'm one) aren't having any
problems at all."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is WHY you are a laughing stock; idiot!

Re: Wireless not connecting to Internet. Access Local

A reply to you from an unhappy chappie, idiot!

Comment to Nonny

My comment was directed to looi76. As long as it had meaning to him that is
what counts. I cannot help it if you fail to fully read the information you
are provided with.
