Wirelessly connected but no internet access

Darkpsycho · 07-10-2008, 11:28 PM

All my other devices like this laptop, my psp and ps3 have internet access and are perfectly fine but on my desktop which is upstairs since my brother took my room for the summer doesn't get any internet access but it says its connect to the router.

The current wireless card in the desktop is a Gigabye GN-WP01GS network card. I tried using the wireless card on this computer on my desktop but it was the same thing connection but no access. I tired resetting and restarting my router but that was no help.

CPU - AMD 9500 Quad-Core
VGA - nVidia 8800 GTS 512mb
Mobo - MSI K9A2 Platinum AMD 790X CrossFire Chipset DDR2/1066

Actually, it was the Microsoft update, see the sticky in the first Networking forum.

ZA has an update to fix it.
