    since installing windows 7 cant access internet wireles


    since installing windows 7 cant access internet wireles need help big time!
    just updated my sony vaio from vista to Win 7 and cant access the internet wirelessly!
    can access via ethernet cable no probs!
    my driver is a intel (R) 5100 AGN, have updated it via intel website.
    spoken to my isp and they guided me through changing my DNS numbers manually, which worked for ten minutes, then they reverted back to auto mode by thereselves.
    Have changed my security settings from WPA to WPA 2 to try this as read somewhere on web that this may work , but to no avail.

    my wireless connection is looks fine between router and and lap top but no internet connection exists.

    any help would appreciated! desperate.

    Hmmm, sounds to me like you did have access to the wireless already when you set it up with your ISP but the connection wasn't stable for more than ten minutes.

    First you might want to try the Intel site again because the drivers for your wifi were recently updated for Windows 7 on 1/7/2010 so that is the first thing I would try.

    Test out the new driver before getting to the router. You may need to reset your router to establish a new connection. There should be a reset button for this somewhere on the router.

    Your router is not on the Windows 7 compatiblity list so it's never been officially tested.

    Your router was discontinued awhile back so there is no support from Thomson for it.
    You can download the new firmware from here which came from a German site. ZZQIAA8.225.rar

    You need to plug your PC directly into the router and run the Wizard that should be included with the firmware.

    I'm sure your ISP has already covered any possible problems with your DNS.

    Have you tried appending in the DNS suffixes? Connect via cable, obtain the DNS through ipconfig /all (there should be 3) IPs and append these in your tcp/ipv4. Try that.

    Otherwise, it could be the router's MAC cloning option.
