Hi all,
This is interesting. After installing SP2 to the server over the weekend, there has been connectivity problems. It seems to only affect laptops. The mapped network drives do not work and the Internet cannot be accessed. However, with wireles on, the laptops can get online. I have restarted DNS and DHCP. What else can I try? Thanks.

Clear the logs of Application and System and restart the server.
Then have a look at the logs.

Are there any errors in it?

Each of those errors has an event id.
So now, you have to solve all these errors by searching the microsoft technet for possible reasons and solutions.

So now it's your turn.

From what I am reading these aren't causing the issue. I believe it must be some setting was changed in either GPO or ADUC and heres why,

I made sure pcA and pcB are both listed in Mobile Users. My login is under mobile users (under Users). I am able to get a wired connection with pcA but not pcB.
