    To troubleshoot a network connection problem, try these steps first:
    • Open Network Diagnostics by right-clicking the network icon in the notification area, and then clicking Diagnose and repair.
    • Make sure that all cables are properly connected.
    • If you're trying to connect to another computer, make sure that computer is on and that you have enabled file and printer sharing on your network. For more information, see Networking home computers running different versions of Windows.
    • If the problem began after you installed new software, check your connection settings to see if they have been changed.
    • To check connection settings
      • Open Network Connections by clicking the Start button Picture of the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking Network and Internet, clicking Network and Sharing Center, and then clicking Manage network connections.
      • Right-click the connection, and then click Properties. Administrator permission required If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    • Test your router to see whether it is fully compatible with Windows Vista by running the Internet Connectivity Evaluation Tool.
