Hello. I've been through mostly all topics and ways to make my internet work in your forums but I still can't find a solution. I installed windows 7 on my laptop and when I try to connect to the internet wireless, all I get is this message: wireless network connection doesn't have a valid ip configuration. Could someone help me? Thanks in advance. By the way, here is mine ipcofig /all: Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601] Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

Care to share how you try connecting your laptop to the net? Is it through a router? Lastly are you running a adsl or cable broadband?

Yes, I tried using static IP but I didn't help, so I switched the settings back to automatic. I'm using a router, and I'm running cable broadband. Thanks for your quick response!

Could you enable DHCP IP through the router, once done, remember to save changes prior to existing the router config page. Next open CMD Prompt & type ipconfig /all & hit enter & next post the IP address, subnetmask , default gateway here
