Hi SexySean ;)

The screenshots you posted show two network connections. One is a USB cable modem. This is the one that shows "limited or no connectivity". The other is a regular network card. Normally you would not use both of these types of connections to connect to the Internet. That you are using both indicates there might be a problem with your setup.

How is your computer connected to the Internet? Is it directly connected to a cable modem, or are you using a broadband router?

Hi there,
I work for a networking company and these are very sample problem that you are facing.
This is a Windows XP's SP2 bug.
Go through the simple steps and you would not face this problem in the future.

1. Right ckick on the local area connection and go to properties in the Network connection's.
2. just above the OK and the cancle buttons you will find " Notify me when there is limited or no connectivity". Uncheck this box and then restart the computer.
-- Do IPconfig on the computer.
-- If you get a good ipaddress " great".
-- Else
-- If you are using a router.
-- Then
-- Reset the router and reconfigure it.

And tell you what it works for both wired and wireless connections.
