Problem started about a month ago. IE7 would intermittently not connect
to internet but yet, client could connect to any other computer on the
network 100% of the time.

Have since installed IE8 (no help), latest Nvidia network driver (no
help).

Wired side works fine and connects up 100%.

Have tried lot's of things - to many to explain here but if someone has
been down this road, I sure would like to hear from you for some ideas.

No virus etc. - (NAV 2009 and just upgraded to NAV 2010)

All MS updates to Dec 14th

No other problems noted except that WHS Restore CD won't pickup and
load the Nvidia network drivers. Have tried the Aug 08 release and Nov
09 release of WHS Restore CD - Dual Boot.

Thank you,

Bob S.

Yes and it didn't find anything wrong. I may have fixed the problem by
uninstalling IE8 and dropping back to IE7 *and* reinstalling the driver
for the network. Still haven't found the answer to WHS not being able
to install the Nvidia network drivers though.

Thanks,
