Hi everyone,
I was on the internet at 2 in the morning last night (or earlier today one might say).
This morning, I booted up my pc and it could not connect to the internet. I did the whole modem reset and router reset thing but still couldn't connect.
I then tried another computer on the same network and the internet is flawless.
I am using a linksys WUSB54Gv2 with a lynksys WRT54G router and a Motorola SB5100 modem. There are two other systems on the network, one PC and one MAC.
Anyway, when I open the linksys control panel it says:
"Connected to access point, but cannot connect to internet"
But I don't believe there is a problem with the router or the internet service because it works on this system.
Possible problems:
I recently installed Norton Anit-virus and then today uninstalled it with Youruninstaller 2008, which removes registry entries.
I also ran free registry cleaner (after the internet stopped working).
There was an electrical storm.
Attempted fixes:
I tried installing a different wireless PCI card, but the software wouldn't run.
I tried using WINSOCKFIX, but without luck.
I tried repairing the connection and turning off the network monitor and then re-enabling them after a reboot.
I tried system restore to my configuration yesterday when the internet worked.
I uninstalled and reinstalled my WUSB54Gv2 software and driver.
I matched my network settings to the other working PC's on my network.
I did a repair install of Windows XP Home.
I'm ran a virus scan, but it says there are no viruses (AVG 7.5 free).
I don't know what else to try. The problem is, there is no real error or anything so I don't know where to start.
Please help me out,
Thanks
