Hello,
I have an HP dv Pavilion 9500 laptop running Vista and I usually connect via Wi-Fi with my Livebox for the internet.
Since yesterday, I am connected to the Livebox but with "local access only" and I have no internet ;-(
The Livebox is working since I can connect with another laptop via Wi-Fi.
I also tried connecting to another Livebox that usually works, and I am once again stuck with "local access only."
Grr
Help !!!

Hello, my name is Robin, I am 15 years old.
Although this post is quite old, the same network connection problems persist for some Windows Vista users.
I purchased an Acer Aspire L100 running Vista and I had the same problem.
After 2 days of research, I finally found the solution. Let me explain:
- plug an Ethernet cable from your box to your computer,
- wait a few seconds then click on the icon of the 2 little computers in the taskbar at the bottom right,
- then click on "Network and Sharing Center"
- you will see your computer connected with a green arrow to "unidentified network" which has an arrow with a red cross pointing towards a globe,
- then click on that red cross and run the troubleshooter (reset the network adapter and then restart your computer),
- then click on "Network Connections" at the top left in the "Network and Sharing Center",
- a page will open with your connection,
- right-click on "Local Area Connection" then enable,
- right-click on "Local Area Connection" then properties and check that all the boxes are checked in "This connection uses the following items,"
- DOUBLE click on "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IP)" then in the "General" and "Alternate Configuration" tabs, check ALL AUTOMATIC OPTIONS (Obtain an IP address automatically; Obtain DNS server addresses automatically; etc...)
- wait a moment and close all windows,
- click on the icon of the 2 little computers in the taskbar at the bottom right,
- then click on "Network and Sharing Center" and everything should be connected to the internet with the globe now colored.
- if it doesn't work, restart your box and then when it's ready, restart your computer,
- and it should work.

I did that, still "local access,"
then I tried to connect directly via ethernet, it worked once, but after restarting, I have nothing.
I don't understand anything at all
I tried a restore, nothing helps
I think the best thing would be to format it, but I don't even know how to do it on Vista.

I have exactly the same problem.
My computer is connected to the router on the local network only, while a computer with XP is connected to the Internet on the same network.
I've tried everything, and I'm open to any advice.
Thank you.

A little clarification for those who have an HP with "OUISTAH" and Norton Security by default
on such a machine with an expired and possibly (poorly) removed Norton, it seems that Norton continues to block network exchanges and always leaves: local access only
a tip I found and tried after x attempts at network configurations without success:
- reinstall Norton Security even if it is expired
and this in order to:
- uninstall Norton Security right after
and it works, (well it seems to work)
on the HP with which I tried this it worked!
it's possible on HP Pavilion and no congratulations for Norton free which costs so much.

How do you uninstall Norton "cleanly" on an HP Pavilion? Because after 36 attempts, Norton is still there. I go through Programs/Features, I look for my little Norton and I click on uninstall. Please, could you provide a solution? Because every time I try, LiveUpdate Notice remains and when I want to remove it, it says it's required for other programs and cannot be deleted.
lol don’t stress, it’s pretty simple. I had the same issue with my laptop, it’s just nonsense ;) so you right-click on your connection, go to properties, and look until you find something like "Allow other users to connect" or I don’t remember exactly, it’s something like that. You hit ok and you’ll see local network and internet.
Having purchased an Acer 7738G-874G, and having had the same problem for 5 days, I tried everything with/without the installation disk, going through IPv4 and IPv6. I managed to solve my problem by doing a system restore.
Local network issue and limited access resolved.

Hello,
you should first clean the TCP/IP layer and the DNS, reboot your PC, and reinstall the Wi-Fi (http://livebox.nigateo.info/sections.php?op=viewarticle&artid=46.

Hello, I'm experiencing the same problem. I followed these steps:
by clicking on the two little screens in the notification bar, then clicking on "Network and Sharing Center"
> then click on "View Status" in the window that opens
> click on "Properties" in the new window...
> double-click on "Internet Protocol Version 4"
> enter an IP address of the type 192.168.1.X
> subnet mask 255.255.255.0
> default gateway (enter the IP address of your Livebox), usually 192.168.1.1 OR 192.168.1.0
> primary DNS (also the address of your Livebox)
> leave the secondary DNS blank
> click OK and then try the connection again...
And when I validate this change, the window: "Wireless Network Connection Properties" automatically freezes, displaying the message: 'Not Responding'
I had to restart my computer to close the window
Can you please respond directly to my email?
Can you help me, please?

old hand at tinkering, I hadn't realized that this PC running Vista was configured with a static IP and a bogus manual DNS. Two hours of floundering for a rookie mistake.
