I made a post on some other forums (using their format), so I'll just paste it here: o What doesn't work Certain webpages (I'd estimate about 50% of the ones I try to open) don't open (They give some sort of network connection error). o What does works The other 50% of webpages. o What you've tried Restarting my computer works every once in a while. However, it can require up to three restarts to get it to work. o Whether its dialup, cable, dsl,... Cable. o Make and model of your modem I cannot check at the moment, but I do not think this is the problem seeing as my laptop is the lone device out of about 8 that does not work. o Whether you have a router (If you do then include the what make & model) Wireless G Linksys router, I believe the model is WRTG40 (I will check in a bit to confirm). o Do you have multiple PCs networked Yes. As mentioned above, I have four PCs on the network, three of which are wirelessly connected (one of which, this one, does not work). o Is it wireless or not (If wireless include the make & model of the wireless adapter) Built-in Wifi on two laptops and a network card on the other desktop. o Are you using Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) I'm not sure what this is. * The OS(s) you are using Just realized this might have something to do with it... Main desktop - Windows Vista Home Premium (no SP) Other desktop - Windows XP Media Center Home edition (newest SP, SP3?) Working laptop - Windows XP Home Edition (newest SP, SP3?) Faulty laptop - Windows Vista Home Premium (SP1) * What do you have for an IP address? 192.xxx.x.xxx (The IPv4 Address right?) * What is your default gateway? 192.xxx.x.x * Can you ping your default gateway? Yes. (NOTE: These tests were done when the computer is working fine) By the way, as you can probably tell, I am in no way tech savvy, so go easy with the technical mumbo-jumbo

Which browser sometimes don't open - IE? FF? i_Xp/VistaUser

Usually I use Firefox, but I've tested with IE and Google Chrome too.
