Last month I brought a D-link wireless router and wireless card for my laptop, set it up with only the laptop running off the router. Worked perfectly, I have now brought a compaq presario with built in wifi to replace my old laptop. I can get this laptop to join the wireless network I have created but it will not connect to the internet through the router only via a cable link. In my network places it says my internet connection is enabled, but when trying to connect to the internet or sign into msn I have errors saying theres a fault with my ip address and DNS... I havent a clue what to do, as it was only by chance I got the old laptop working. Can anyone help me please?
