Re: Cannot connect to Internet

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Thanks Chuck, I hope I formatted properly and provided necessary data.

I have 2 laptops and one PC currently on my network. The network is
controlled via Motorola SBG 900 wireless gateway cable modem. The
modem has one ethernet connection and one USB connection in addition to
the wireless capability.

The laptops connect to the wireless network with their built-in
wireless cards. The PC is currently linked to the modem via the USB
connection and has an Airlink USB Wireless-G Network Adapter installed
on it. The PC is having the issues.

Laptop 1 runs Windows XP Home SP2. Its ipconfig /all log follows:

I recently updated my cable modem, but this problem existed prior to
that. I am able to successfully connect to the internet via three
laptops and one ethernet connected PC (no longer exists).

Is it a virus or trojan? I thought it was my motherboard, but it
wouldn't make sense that the wireless adapter wouldn't work if the LAN
card was broken, correct?

Please help...the computer is intended for basic school functions and I
would rather not invest in a new computer for this purpose.

Rafael,

Please start with some detailed description about physical connection of each
computer. Remember, I'm not there in front of your computer.

Then, let's look at "ipconfig /all", from each computer, and diagnose the
problem. Read this article, and linked articles, and follow instructions
precisely:
