    Trouble Connecting to Wireless in Home
    Hello,

    I have laptop at my house and a wireles network provided by comcast. I have a wireless card in the laptop and up until yesterday had no trouble connecting to the internet. I connected somewhere else and when I brought the laptop home it shows that it is connected at full strength but I cannot get the internet. The pages just won't come up. I checked all my connections and they seem correct -- never dial, automatically detect LAN, and I tried lifting and enabling the firewall with no luck. When I tried to repair the connection, it says that it cannot renew the IP address.

    Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

    Thank you!

    Allison

    Easiest Fix Is To Call Comcast And They Will Walk You Right Through It...
    Same Thing Happened To Me...
    If You Want You Can Try Unplugging Power To Cablemodem And Wireles System Wait 30 Sec Then Plug Them Back In. Then Try Restarting Your Computer And Make Sure Its Trying To Connect To Your Wireless System.
