Wireless Adapter Problem

HOSTILE 99 · 01-12-2007, 11:33 PM

HI everyone,
I have a problem.
It's about my Wireless Adapter in my Laptop. I can use my Internet, and can go to most any website but one. Myspace. I've looked though my internet settings, my connection settings, even tryed reseting them all to the defualt settings. Nothing has worked. So for a one last atempt to get on Myspace.com, I Install a Linksys Wireless G USB wireless Card. It worked! BUT, I don't want to have to use it. I want to use the one that is in my laptop, so can anyone help me out?
Please and thanks!

That's more than a little odd! I can't see how the installed card has anything to do with this.

The only thing that comes to mind is there is a firewall or other security application that is tied to the internal wireless NIC that is inhibiting the access. The wireless hardware doesn't know, or care, where you're going.
