Hi there

 

I got my laptop a few days ago, and I've been trying without any success to make firefox work.
I managed without any problems to connect to my wireless connection at home, but it does not connect to the internet, it said that there was a problem with the DNS so I put the one from my router and it didn't work. It came installed with an antivirus only 30 days trial, so I uninstalled it because I'll soon install another one. I also tried to deactivate the firewall from Vista and it could only stay connected to the wi-fi, nice signal but could not contact any site like google, etc

 

Please would like to know how to fix it?
I have also tried with the ipconfig/release commands in cmd, and the result is the same.
Hope you guys know how to solve that problem.

 

Edit: Moved to wireless general discussion

I've kinda had problems like this before. Have you tried reinstalling the wireless card drivers? That helps sometimes...
