Hi,
Have an old Dell Inspiron 6000. Yesterday I did a clean install of WinXP Pro with Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG. When I installed the OS, it was missing a bunch of drivers ie:network controller, LAN, wireless, video, audio etc. The typical ones when you install from a non OEM disc.
I installed the correct drivers in the correct order. After that, wireless would not configure. Ended up manually entering Static IP, Gateway, DHCP and DNS addresses and verified they are correct.
Now I get a notification saying i am connected to xxx network and the wireless icon lights up but two things are happening: I loose "connectivity" after a minute or so ( red X on wireless icon)then it reconnects immediately. This happens continuously. When it is connected and I go online, I get "the page cannot be displayed(cannot find server)".
Pinging the default gateway times out. Pinging other nodes gives "request timed out, hardware error, hardware error, request timed out"
same condition in safe mode with networking
I have reinstalled the drivers, reset the adapters, deleted the winsock and winsock2 keys in the reg, disabled the firewall, disabled the Wireless Zero Configuration , verified all TCP/IP, HTTP, HTTPS, UDP, POP etc setting were enabled. I even re-did the install thinking it may be corrupt.
What else can I look at?
Prior to install, was running XP Home with no connectivity issues.
Thanks!
