Re: Good Wireless connection to Network but Usually can't access Internet



johnny_huang_2005@xxxxxxxxx hath wroth:

Well, I'm posting this from the connection and Norton is running. As a
matter for fact, the connection has been working fine for about 3
hours. I have no special love for Norton, but I don't have any
problems connecting to 3 other Roadrunner networks and 2 Bellsouth DSL
connections.

That's nice. Now turn off Norton Internet Security by right clicking
on the Norton icon in the system tray and selecting "disable internet
security". Select "until next reboot". If the wireless now magically
works, you've found the problem.

Incidentally, I agree with Doug Jamal. Norton security is a very
common cause of connectivity issues.
