Computer Help. Internet just says "local only", cant get on web.
Hi, I am on Vista OS on a laptop and for some reason i cannot get into the internet, it just always says "local only" for broadband and i have a wireless icon i went into and that seems to be OK and functioning. I have everything hooked up fine through the router just like i usually do but this is a new laptop and i dont know why it wont let me get to the net. Ive tried everything within my limited brain capacity. Please help, thank you.

Do you have the lastest drivers for your laptop? not the Legacy WinXP drivers?

when you type "ipconfig" from a DOS window, does it show you an IP address assigned?
try "ipconfig /release" and Enter key, then type "ipconfig /renew" + Enter key... that should give you an new IP and refresh you net connection if it's somehow broken now.
