My HP laptop running windows vista home premium,vwill connect to the router but no Internet. I do not have access to the router. Can I home how change the wirelss settings on my laptop to fix the problem? Please help
You need to call the internet provider. They more than likely have a different protocol to set up in order for your internet to work.

The problem is not Vista, the problem is the Netgear. I have seen this happen time and time again with both Netgear (primarily) and D-Link (often). That's why I *only* recommend Linksys.
Worst case - go buy one from Walmart (yes, they have 'em). Hook it up and see the difference. If, somehow, the problem persists, take it back, and you've lost nothing. But I'd bet (as they say down here in the South "dollars to doughnuts") that's your problem :)
Hope this helps - remember to rate :)

first you can try and boot to the recovery partition by tapping F11 during start up.
then you can go to advanced options and choose Hardware/driver reinstallation.
then you pick your wireless device from the list. adn reinstall it and restart.
if that does not fix it try this:
remove your a/c cord and remove batter too
-hold power button for 30 seconds and dont let go
-then put battery back on and connect a/c cord
-boot to the BIOS by tapping F10
-when it comes up hit F9 to load it to default settings.
-then hit F10 to save and exit and check it
-if its still not showing up i would suggest a full system recovery
If a full system recovery does not fix it i would have to say you have to replace your wireless card.
Good Luck.
HP has an Extended Service on many of the models with wireless failures.Check whether your computer is eligible for a free repair.You will need the P/N and Model from the Service Tag on bottom.

SOURCE: I recently formatted my Acer Aspire 4732Z laptop
You should have used eRecovery preinstalled on your computer,
if you formatted this unit properly there should be no need for another install of vista,
opps what did you format this unit with???
XP or Vista or windows 7
you only need to reinstall another operating system when you up grade your system,sometimes not even then,
as for the product key on the bottom relates to the install on your machine.
The new vista will come with a different product key,
If you format the drive to install the new vista then the key on the bottom will not work.unless you have the new product key,you could contact Microsoft and ask them to help with the product key,they will want the proof of purchase tho,contact them over the phone ,
Hope this helps,Cheers MISTERDJ
