Re: Connecting but no internet!

"I would say you are holding your
mouth open correstly when you power everything up"??

My First Post:
"The scenario is this, im renting with 3 other friends. We have a
belkin
wireless G router with a connection that is not encrypeted or anything.

All of our computers (inc my laptop with netgear pcmcia card) can
connect to it perfectly.
I recently bought a desktop and tried using this adapter: NETGEAR WG111

54MBPS WIRELESS USB 2.0 ADAPTER
I have a strong signal and can ping the router and all but one of the
other computers. (The only computer i cannot connect to is my friends
desktop who is wired directly to the router).
So far so good.
Only problem is that i cant access the internet for some reason!
the wierd thing is that i installed the same adapter on my latop and
successfully got internet connection!
Iv made sure mac filters is off.
Iv tried disabling all firewall - windows and norton internet security
but still dont work."

The adpater works on my laptop but not on my desktop! I can connect to
my router (hence all the ip configuration is correct!) but not getting
internet access.
