Okay Windows Vista has been driving me nuts the past few days. Lately I would connect to my Linksys Wireless-G Router (WRT54G Model) just fine using either my Wireless Card (built in) or the direct LAN connection. Now when I connect, it takes longer to identify the network and now its only giving me Local Access with no internet. Yet my roommates can connect to it just fine and both are using XP and Vista. If I did get Internet access, it would randomly drop down to Local Access. Even manually rebooting the Laptop and the Router, also the modem to, I'm still getting only Local Access (this includes both wireless and lan connections), and I'm the administrator for the router. Also my roommates still connect just fine to this point even with all the restarts.

Any ideas?

Ya I'm doing that right now as well, System Recovery with the default factory settings being reinstalled. Waiting to see if it works and if it does, I'm getting all the latest drivers and updates first thing to make sure of no future issues with former problems.
