Tried the Repair Connection option? Just right click the little computer terminal in your System Tray (lower right). Router reboot? I'm on XP SP3 with all updates and it's working fine. toby10's Profile:

Had this years ago where a Windows Update caused an issue with my AVG antivirus. Similar issue where the PC couldn't see the internet. You may want to try removing AV/Firewall software and see if it helps http://www.last.fm/user/BrownySV/

Yes, try wired connection first to make sure it's not the router. Do you have other devices that work fine through the router? Other things to try: - reboot into safe mode and see whether wifi works there - try to download and install a wifi driver from your manufacturer.

Possibly gateway ip address has not been set up. Run ipconfig in a command prompt window and look at interface subnet mask and gateway address and see if they are sensible. If unsure how to read it - copy the output to a file (e.g. ipconfig output.txt ) and attach it to a post
