Is your wireless set to use a static IP address? That has burned me in the past.

subject: [PCTECH] Win 7 no wireless internet access

I took my Win7 Ultimate laptop to my son's condo in Chicago this week.
I could connect to his wireless network, but could not get internet
access (AT&T DSL). The Windows network troubleshooter said the issue
was the DNS server was not responding, but I could ping that IP
address (a private 192.168.x.x address) and get a response. IPCONFIG
/FLUSHDNS, IPCONFIG /RELEASE, IPCONFIG /RENEW did not help. I poked
around looking at settings, but didn't change anything as it would
have been guesses. I COULD connect to an ethernet jack in his router
and all was well.

Now that I am back home, I cannot connect wireless to the internet
here either! And I've been doing that forever. I connect to the
wireless, but get 'no internet access'. I swear I've changed no
settings.

Suggestions? I'm still on vacation, so I'll be in and out all day.

Thanks.
