Lost Networks

HI All,

I have just upgraded my boardband to 50 MB. The installation engineer could not get my laptop connected. However I have 2 other laptops 1 running Vista Bus annd one running win 7 home and a desktop running Win 7 Pro. All the connect with out a problem. Mu Dell vostro laptop would not connect via wireless but would via cable. The engineer left as it was woking on my other PC's. I tried to sort it out and but could not. I went back to my old system (router and n wireless whic was ok before. but the old 20mb modem did not work. So I went back to the new modem with built in wireless. It all worked for a while, not sure why, the My dell stopped connecting, even by cable. At this point I gave up. When I went to my office I could not connect to my works network via DHCP, if I connected using static address it tell me its connected to the internet but will not open any web pages, I also cannot ping a DNS ie Microsoft.com.

My dell is set up as a dual boot so If Iboot into XP it works fine, so its not a hardware Issue.

Has any one got any Ideas,

Thanks Clive

The Local area Connection is curreently Static. If Iset it to DHCP the IP Address is wrong. I will chang it back and post the ipconfoog results.

Hi OS,

Tried that still will not work.

In the event log I have this :
Your computer was not assigned an address from the network (by the DHCP Server) for the Network Card with network address 0x001DE04624F7. The following error occurred: 0x79. Your computer will continue to try and obtain an address on its own from the network address (DHCP) server.

The full details are below:
