OK...I know there are hundreds of threads on this topic, but I cannot find any help in ones listed. Or maybe...I am just over looking a small step. So here is my issue....
I have a linksys G router for our two laptops for remote and the desktop wired into the router. It worked in this configuration before Christmas. Desktop states that it has "Limited or No Connectivity". So I unhook from the router and plug straight into modem...same thing.
Here is my info:
Windows IP Configuration
Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : home
Primary Dns Suffix . . . . . . . :
Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Hybrid
IP Routing Enabled. . . . . . . . : No

Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection 4:

Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.0.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . :
Here is what I have done so far:
1. Un-installed and re-installed drivers
2. Manually and automatic IP address in the properties
3. ipconfig/renew
4. Change from router to wall connection and back
5. Ran network wizard
The only thing that I haven't done is pull up the router's webpage and directly enter the computer itself as one of the computers to accept, but I never had to do this prior.
Can anyone suggest what my next step should be? Any assistance would be extremely helpful. Thanks in advance.
