Hello guys,
currently I have a home wireless network with the Linksys wireless G broadband router. My desktop PC is wired to the router (not using wireless) with a usb network card. Everything works fine, internet access and all.
But the problem is my laptop. I configured it to use wireless networking with the router, and after some tinkling around, I managed to get it to work. However, after it was taken to school and connected to the school's network, the laptop could not use my home's internet anymore.
The laptop uses this Intel 2200 built in network transmitter or something to connect to wireless networks. There should not be a problem with this built in wireless network card since it continues to be able to connect to the school's wireless network. Furthermore, the laptop can detect and connect to my home's network, no problem at all. Excellent signal strength and everything.
But somehow, it just refuses to connect to the internet. It does not seem to detect a connection and keep asking me to connect to a dialup connection I had setup for use somewhere else. Any ideas please?
