You're welcome, Shd, and thanks for giving the test results. They
show that your wireless network connection is getting the right
settings from your Netgear router, but it isn't able to access sites
on the Internet.

Can the computer ping the router? Try this command:

ping 192.168.1.1

Since the Norton Firewall is installed, make sure that the Windows
Firewall is turned off.

Resetting TCP/IP might help. Type this command, then reboot:

netsh winsock reset

If none of that helps, please post a copy of the computer's route
table. Enter this command, then copy/paste the contents of the
"route.txt" file:

route print >route.txt

Hello again Steve,
Thanks for your patience.

Not such good results, this time.

Couldn't ping router - request timed out 4 times - Packets sent = 4,
Received = 4, Lost = 4, (100% Loss)

TCP/IP reset and rebooted. No change noted.

No firewall conflicts present.

But when I gave the command to see the route table, the text box briefly
flashed on the screen and then disappeared. I tried this several times but
without success. The text box appears full, but stays on screen for a
fraction of a second and then disappears. No chance to copy and paste - or
even read it.

Could this disappearing screen be a clue?
Thanks again for your help so far
Best wishes, Shd

Type the "route" command in the same command prompt window that you
use for the "ping" commands.
