It connect to the home network fine, I even tried a wireless d-link usn adapter and that does the same thing!! My wireless on my router does work with other pcs, etc... so it cant be the linksys router, but i even checked that out and did a reset, didnt help.I did a troubleshoot in windows 7 and it says cant communcate with the primary dns server.And yes I had no issues before, Hope you can help, Thanks!

Hi, This is a driver issue. I suggest that you download the latest driver from ASUS website. ASUSTeK Computer Inc.-Support- Important Note: Microsoft provides third-party contact information to help you find technical support. This contact information may change without notice. Microsoft does not guarantee the accuracy of this third-party contact information. However, since the latest driver is for Windows Vista, it may be not compatible. In this case you may need to wait for ASUS to release the newer drivers that are compatible with Windows 7 beta.Arthur Xie - MSFT

I no thats not the issue, but i did forget to mention i already updated the driver, from the intel website as i was told from asus tech support, and that doesnt help, but remember "I even tried a wireless d-link usn adapter"

Hi, The possible reason is that both adapters are not compatible with Windows 7 beta. The drivers you installed are all designed for Windows Vista. Check the connection settings (IP address, Default Gateway, etc), temporary disable the anti-virus and firewall. Additionally, ensure that the wired connection is not connected when you enable the wireless connection. If the issue still occurs, this should be a compatibility issue. Arthur Xie - MSFT

Ahh yes, but then why did it works for 2 months then stop?And i didnt install any drivers at first i used the drivers that came with windows 7 they installed automatically.I only installed those new ones from the intel site when this issue happened, and for the d-link usb one i diidnt install any windows 7 did."Check the connection settings (IP address, Default Gateway, etc), temporary disable the anti-virus and firewall. Additionally, ensure that the wired connection is not connected when you enable the wireless connection."I did all that.compatibility issue. - With what?

Hi, You may need to remove the existed driver and then reinstall. Otherwise some old components will still be present. How to remove=========== 1. Click Start, click Run, type in "devmgmt.msc" (without quotation marks) and press Enter. 2. In Device Manager, double click to expand the branch Network Adapters. 3. Right click the entry of the adapter and click Uninstall to uninstall the driver.4. Click Start, in the Start Search box type "appwiz.cpl" and press Enter. 5. Find and remove all the card reader related entries. Then install the new driver. When you check the connection settings, make sure that IP address and DNS server are obtained automatically. If the issue persists, please run ipconfig /all in Command prompt and paste the information in your post. Also, run route print in command line and paste the result. Arthur Xie - MSFT

I just went back to windows vista and still having the same issues

Hi, The issue may be from the router. Try to manually assign DNS server. If the issue still occurs, paste the result of entering ipconfig /all in you post and we would analyze it. Arthur Xie - MSFT

Well i rma'd my linksys wrt54gl router got a new one doing the same thing, so i bought a netgear router still doing same thing, so i dunno what to do now!

If multiple routers and multiple operating systems deliver the same results, I'd say its probably a problem with the wireless card in your computer or some environmental interference. Have things been working better lately? -Nick

It was my ps3 that was interfering with the router, when i d/cd it b/c i sold it i noticed it stopped thanks all good

Thank you arthur xie, I tried everything else for the past 2 weeks and you just saved my life thx a lot!!!!
