    Hi,
    I have Windows7 prof 64 bit on my IBM Thinkpad. I have one problem. my laptop doesn't resolve host names while using it' wifi card. on wired network all things works fine.
    I have checked all the things. it pings everything using IPs but not pings hosts by there names.

    From what I've read this is most likely a driver problem. You should go to the manufacture of your laptop's website to obtain the latest drivers.

    Do not go by what it says about the driver in Device Manager.

    so driver and routing is fine... you can find local subnet and ping some sites on internet... correct?

    ping 74.125.132.94 works? (it's www.google.nl)

    when wired: in command prompt
    Code:
    nslookup
    when wireless: in command prompt
    Code:
    nslookup

I'll be happily browsing, usually in Chrome, when all of a sudden pages stop loading with the "Resolving Host..." message in the bottom left corner.
