I had the same problem yesterday (the troubleshooter said it was my default gateway that was the problem) which didn't make sense because my it was just me in my whole university halls that had the problem.

Anyway, I just went into the network connections, then into LAN properties, then properties of TCP/IP and changed the IP address from the one written to the default one.

Now this worked a treat for me but I didn't <i>know</i> it would work - i.e I just hoped so. I don't know enough about networks to explain what happened but it seemed to work. Someone here might tell you not to do what I did, but I thought I'd let you know that it worked for me.

the tcp/ip information is all set to obtain automatically... the wired computer cant access ANY internet... whereas this one can, (like im on this site... but msn wont work)

what is going on

Tried repairing the internet connection?

Try going outside and finding someone elses connection to see if the problem is local or just yours, or maybe put a wep on ur network

it already has wep

Ok. that has happened  to me before. You have a few options. Turn off your router  for 5 minutes and then turn it back on, or just wait a little the problem will be fixed by its own. OR you can call your isp

What ISP are you using, and have you contacted them again?

Have one of those guys come over and they might (dependeing on the isp) Find the problem for free. For now try to see if web msn works
