On my other new laptop with home premium vista, I can only get partially
connected to my home network. It identifies the network name, shows it is
"connected with limited access". Any one know what I am missing (or not
matching) on the properties or setup???
My other home machines are still working fine.
 
It could be the wireless driver or DHCP issue. This search result may help,

I had this problem with my new laptop, long story short, had to change my
router settings from using WEP128 to WPA-PSK and it solved my problem.
Apparently there is an issue with WEP128 and Vista with some routers and no
real fix. I wouldn't have minded changing to WPA-PSK but the CF wireless
card I have for my PDA doesn't support it.
