Internet Connection
Just upgraded to Windows 7 32bit. Have a linksys modem and linksys wireless router, with the main computer with Windows 7 connected via ethernet to router, and laptop and iPod touch able to surf via wireless router.
Here's my problem....The computer can be OFF, and all my devices (iPod touch, laptop) can get on the internet and everything works fine on those devices. I turn on the computer that the router is attached to, and a few seconds after the Windows 7 welcome screen appears, I can no longer surf the internet on my devices (nor the computer). It's almost as if Windows 7 is blocking my router. Like I said, the computer can be OFF and my internet works fine. Turn Windows 7 on, and everything quits. I have to unhook and bypass the router and just have my cable modem go straight to my computer in order to get on the internet.
What do I need to do to Windows 7 to allow me to use the router?
