Hey guys, having some connectivity issues.

This is my router http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16833127158

I have a basic Gateway laptop VIA network chipset. Has built in wireless and built in LAN.

I had everything hooked up and working fine. Used the network for about 2 weeks and now if i'm connected either with CAT cables or Wireless, i get a Limited Connectivity error. I have tried reseting the router to see if that would work. I've only had this router for 3 weeks. Worked for 2, but now i can't get it to work. I would call Customer Service, but i am in Iraq right now and the time change makes it difficult to figure it out. Hope you guys can help me trouble shoot this.

Have you tried power cycling the modem and router? Just unplug the power adapter for about a minute, plug the modem in first, wait about a minute for the lights to become solid, plug in the router, wait for the self checking as leds flash, then reboot your pc and see if you can connect. Next step would be to use the Repair feature on the Network Connection. Control Panel>Network Connections>right click the connection and select repair. Another option is to try the Winsock Fix.
