I have shut down and restarted my laptop and the routher/wifi I have ipconfig /renew I have ipconfig /registerdns I have pinged a lot of stuff I have checked the device manager (all of these I have screenshots of) I have renewed the DNS I shut down my firewall I connected directly (with cable) to the router and it works fine What I think I might have done is when I was doing a spyware scanned maybe I blocked access?? how can I tell if I did this? screenshots http://ouranianikolaidis.com/ourania_wireless.pdf This post has been edited by onikolai: Jun 23 2008, 03:28 PM
