Hi ive got a new laptop (ACER 2423) running Windows XP and when i connect to my netgear wireless router, it connect successfully although the internet doesn't work. It says connected with signal stregth exellent, (it doesn't say limited or no connectivity). Also my friends laptop work perfectly with the router with the internet working fine, so im guessing its something to do with my laptop or settings. Any idea's would be greatly appriciated!! Thank you
