Vista LAN Connection

[Guest]

My laptop will connect to a LAN device, but windows rejects the internet
return information.

Hence I cannot connect to the internet, despite the LAN Device saying its
'connected'.

The same LAN works fine with a laptop loaded with Windows XP.

None of the diagnostics fix the issue.

Any ideas?
