Have a SMC7004wFw router home network with one hardwire and two wireless
units -- were initially running off smc cards. Recently purchased a new
labtop that has its own internal wireless (intel 2200BG). Initially
successfully worked as unsecured hookup -- found connection and worked
well. Then internet ceased to work -- have packets received but not
sent. States that unit is connected and good signal, can hit repair
button and will reconnect -- but internet still not working. Properties
of wireless hookups shows microsoft client, intell wireless connection
agent, File and printer sharing, Q0S packet scheduler, AEGIS protocol
--IEEE 802.1x (v3.1.0.1), and TCP/IP.

If I use the hardwire hookup from new computer -- to same router, works
fine. What is happening? Thanks.

Hi

Similar problem. A few days ago the wireless stopped working properly in my
laptop - connection is good, but it is only sending packets, not receiving
any, on an unsecured network I was on the previsou day with no problems.
Haven't changed anything myself, although tried everything to fix it,
including following all the advice the help topics from Microsoft contain. Is
it something to do with an update maybe? I tried going back to a time before
the last few updates came into effect, but the wireless still refuses to
receive. I tried updating the wireless card driver as well. No improvement.
Help!

Thanks

Did you ever find a solution to your problem? The exact same thing has
happened to me only my laptop is still good it's my desktop that has stopped
working wirelessly.

No. I can only assume it's something to do with a Windows update, and it's
not something that can be rectified by 'System Restore'. I've ended up simply
ordering a card by a different manufacturer; prices being as low as they are
I decided it was the easiest option. I'll let you know if I have any problems
with that...
