Problem Connecting to Wireless Network On Windows Vista
Okay, here's the deal. I have a Toshiba Satellite A205 Laptop. Running Windows Vista. My neighbor has a wireless connection that he lets me connect to. Every thing has been going great for a couple of weeks, but now all of a sudden, when I connect to the wireless network it connects, but is "Local Only" I have tried many things, but found no solution. I have changed some settings and then changed them back. Including windows firewall, and my antivirus software. When I am connected on the now local only network and I run CMD and then type IPCONFIG I get this: ANy help would be greatly appreciated.

Please be advised that this is against the terms of service for the ISP, and against the rules here at TSG. I suggest a reading of the TSG Rules pertaining to illegal activities.
