    Hello fellow members,

    I have an internet connection that is wireless, it says that it is connected with the blue circle. I load the page up and says there is no connection, I have done a windows update and does not work now! I am running vista, and got norton anti virus.

    Many thanks michael

    Are you SURE your actually connected?

    Click start (open the vista menu)

    Type cmd enter
    In the black window type

    Ping Google
    Then enter

    Does it give times? (like responding 32ms etc... )
    If so, u are connected and can hit Google.. if it says timeout error. You aren't connected
