The internet was working for two days, and then it just stopped. In reply to Jesse and Roxy's post on September 12, One more update. I did everything recommended in this thread up, and realized the problem is not with the network. I connected directly to the modem, restarted the computer and modem, obviously no internet. So I went into control panel, and the computer says it is connected to the internet. It won't let me diagnose anything if the computer thinks there is a connection.

I don't want her to have to take it in somewhere to pay money and find out it is a simple setting that reconfigured when the computer crashed. I must say, I have a lot of respect for the people that work on and maintain windows machines everyday, these things are a pain to even figure out what is wrong, let alone fix a problem.

So staicaly placing the ip add and dns servers seemed to do the trick. Your firmware upgrade might accept these protocols and avoid the issues with vista not accepting the dhcp packets request. You could leave it this way it will work just fine.

But once i got online i then i found the firmware upgrade for my Linksys router downloaded it and then installed it and then went back to put all nics wireless and wired back to full DHCP and everything is running fine In reply to Networkingisapain in vista's post on November 6, My vista machine woke up one day from hibernation and decided it could no longer identify my wired network.

I've tried a number of other fixes, including modifying my registry, and they do not work. How can I get in to see the DNS servers I'm hooked up to a Motorola don't know exactly what model, I'm not home at the moment to look cable modem? Will I have to borrow someone else's computer and hook it up to see this? I've tried everything in this thread and am still having this issue. I am going to try and back out SP2 and see what happens. What do you all think?

Thank you very much.. In reply to Supun7's post on August 4, Good Afternoon Everybody, I have an old Vista Gateway laptop 9 years old that hasn't been able to connect to the internet since October I am running Windows Vista Premium with service pack 2 installed.

I have AVG software running too. This recently happened to me, also on Vista. I run two computers the other Windows 10 off of the same router. Windows 10 computer was averaging between 60 and 70 Mbps on router 99 in one test direct to modem ; Windows Vista machine was running between roughly 7.

After mainly struggles, thought it was a router problem, but it was not! The answer in my case was that my anti-virus program, AVG, was the culprit. Ask a question. Quick access.

Finally cracked it after switching off IPV6 ; turns out culprit for me was McAfee Uninstalled and now she flies ;- Hope this helps others.

Friday, October 27, PM. Sunday, March 11, PM. I have the same problem and am looking for a solution Wednesday, March 14, PM. After numerous hours on the phone with my manufacturer downloading patches, resetting the machine etc , we finally discovered that the problem was indeed McAfee.

More specifically, it was the Phishing Filter. I just had to go back into McAfee to disable the annoying messages that I wasn't fully protected. Hope this helps. Tuesday, March 20, PM. Have tried just about everything there is to try.. Anyone else? Same issues here - brand new computer running vista - can take up to a half hour to load some pages.

Downloading anything right now isn't even an option.. Thursday, March 22, PM. Saturday, March 24, PM. Ramon Pfabeo. Sunday, March 25, PM.

Both connections give the same slow speeds! Wednesday, March 28, PM. Chris Donne wrote: I can confirm that turning the McAffee phishing filter cured it for me where all the other fixes failed. Sunday, April 1, AM. Guys I love you all. Advised my girlfreind to buy her new laptop from Dell. She had an old compaq laptop and this was running faster on the net than this shiney new Dell. Dell ship McAfee crappy security centre as standard so I did as you advised and disabled Phishing filter.

Wow, sorted it out straight away. Me thinks I'm in store for good head tonight ;- Thanks guys. Sunday, April 1, PM. Is anyone using AOL? I have the same slow problem but it doesnt seem to be anything to do with phishing filers and i dont have Mcafee.

If other people are fixing the problem under vista the Mafee prob then it musent be vista. It seems to only be slow on peer to peer and youtube for me.

Thursday, April 5, PM. One of the first things I did was uninstall McAffe but my connection is so slow, it times out very often. My PC running XP on the same network flies. I'll try the netsh thing tonight and this link might help too?

Friday, April 6, PM. Thursday, April 12, AM. Any help would be reaaaaally appreciated if not i'll just switch back to xp and eat the cd of vista Thx a lot.

Friday, April 13, PM. Can anyone help with internet problems on Vista! What is the fix? It is almost as if my keyboard is broken, you must type one character per second for it to come through on a web page plus the web pages loading is super slow and often unclear.

Monday, April 16, PM. Wednesday, April 18, PM. Im in the same boat. What do i need to do to fix this? Thursday, April 19, AM. Ok I am def ready to switch to a mac!

I have run the system with all add-ins disabled, the microsoft Live OneCare disabled, windows defender disabled, etc.

I have literally tried everything, disabled the phising filter, made sure my computers updates were updated and still internet problems!

I downloaded Mozilla Firefox latest edition and that seemed to fix the problem for a while but now both IE7 and Firefox are all running like the computer is an old Tandy POS. What is the cause and solution? It happens no matter which of the hundred ways I have connected to the internet, it's not the ISP, It's not the wireless, it's got to be Vista.

Anyone know how to fix? Thursday, April 19, PM. Thanks Ramon! I did the same on my new Dell machine and my connection is flying now. It is ridiculous just how bloated McAfee's products are! Wednesday, April 25, PM. This is a "me too" post just to say thank you to the people on this thread. Thanks all. I did same thing with my Dell, 'slow internet' problem was completely resolved. Thanks for any ideas!

Thursday, April 26, PM. I'm also having slow internet. Mainly during downloads and playing battlefield 2 online.

I use to download at kps, now 32 and lower. It's not right!! I use to have McAfee, I uninstalled it because that's what the Vista advisor told me to do. So I'm still having slow internet download times and crazy lag. I'll try the turn off computer, router, modem, and turn them back on. Monday, April 30, AM. Hello there Tuesday, May 1, AM. Regards Dave. Friday, May 18, PM. Baker - MSFT 0. There are many reasons why slow internet problems can potentially occur, 3rd party products can often create problems as can many many other things.

Friday, November 2, AM. Just to let you all know I have just purchased a new computer running Vista Home Premium and low and behold I too had a problem wit slow internet. Thursday, December 13, PM. How do you know that when you uninstalled all 31 updates you didn't uninstall one that you actually needed?
