    Just restored a vista laptop to factory settings and have reinstalled all the drivers, however, I can connect the laptop to my router, wirelessly but cannot connect to the internet. I have restored this laptop before and used the same drivers, whats gone wrong and how can I fix it??

    Seems like an issue with your router rejecting the laptop's attempts to connect to the WWW. Check your firewall and DHCP settings for any access restrictions that you might have put in-place since the last OS restore?

    BTW I meant the router's NAT firewall, not Windows or software firewall. :)
