    does it connecct to the the network but you get no internet? look in network and sharing center.. you see a link to the router but no link to the internet. if so you have the famous vista local only access no dhcp problem and are in big trouble. if not you are doing something silly...

    everytimes i see the list of connectable links. when i click mine, i am getting this message ''unable to connect''. no internet and not connect to the network.
    as i say, if the connection in secure (wpa) i can't connect. connection in secure (wep) or not in secure i can connect. i didn't do anything silly. do u have any idea? how a trouble i am in? what can i do?

    and one thing more, i installed windows xp a few days ago. i use double os now. and i have no problem with windows xp, everthing works well. but windows vista makes me angry. please help.
