I've been away for awhile, but this problem remains at this time. Any help is appreciated. I'm pretty much dumbfounded at this point. I can ping the router and the laptop is successfully pinged from the router and other computers on the network, with a response time of 1ms to 32ms with no packet loss. Flushed dns, repaired connection. The signal is strong and connects all the time, IP is assigned successfully. Using the latest atheros drivers for XP... 4.1.2.71. The only problem seems to be actually connecting to the internet.
This did not happen before with a SMC pc card 802.11b adapter. Where should I be looking to solve this problem? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of warpmedia Sent: Saturday, April 22, 2006 12:40 PM To: The Hardware List Subject: Re: [H] Laptop WiFi Problems Can you ping the default gateway/router?
