I have been testing Vista since Beta 2. IO am having a problem with my
internet connection that I did not have with Beta two or pre-release RC1. I
can pink my network with no problem but cannot connect to web pages.
 
I have the same issue. Can ping my host and my router but cannot connect to
the internet or logon to the router. I tested with IE7 and Firefox 1.5. The
same PC with windows XP SP2 is fine.
 
I also can not connect since upgarding beta 2 to RC1. I can ping my router
and my host but cannot connect to either with IE7 and Firefox 1.5. The same
PC boots to XP SP2 and has no issues.
 
I was able to reolve the issue by disabling TCP Checksum Offload for ip4 and
ip 6 as well as disabling UDP Checksum Offload in ip4 and ip 6.
 
How do you do this?

In device manager, expand network adapters and right click on your card.
Select properties.
Select the Advanced Tab.
You should then see the options.
 
I was having similar problems, I could get to yahoo, but couldn't get to
google or gmail or go beyond microsoft's home page or activate RC1. Disabling
the TCP checksum offload and UDP checksum offload fixed all of my problems.
Thank you.

I had a similar problem after RC1 upgrade of failure to connect to the
internet with a Marvell Yukon LAN adaptor on an Asus A8V Deluxe motherboard,
and disabling the TCP Checksum Offload and UDP Checksum Offload for ip4 and
ip6 in the device manager as described in the post by "The Mc" solved the
problem. Many thanks.
 
What is these options are not present?

I do not have the option to disable IPv4 offload checksum. Anyone know any
other way to fix the RC1 internet connection problem?
 
I also do not have the option to disable TCP Checksum Offload for ip4 and
IPv6. The option is not there. Does anyone have any suggestions to connect
to the internet with RC1. I have an HP dv8000 laptop.
