I have a BT home-hub that has been working fine for a few months. i have been able to connect my computer by Ethernet and 2 laptops by wireless. However, one of the laptops, the one using Windows Vista, has stopped being able to connect to the internet. It connects to the network but with limited access, meaning i can't get online at all. It seems to be a problem with acquiring the ip address and doesn't seem to be a problem with the laptop as i have successfully accessed other networks since. any help would be brilliant as I'm quite frustrated by it at the moment. thanks.
