My wireless network card and lan interface have reed x's on them, but they kinda work. This is after I've reinstalled Win 7 Ultimate.
When I plug in a network point, I'm able to get DHCP and Internet and all, no problems there. But prob arises with my wireless network card.
I've checked that I've got updated drivers, updated TCP stacks, installed, unistaalled and all.
I've googled very hard for this, and unfortunately I can't seem to find a solution.
I've downloaded connectify and virtual router, both give me errors related to my wireless network card.

Anyone experienced this, and how the h does one solve this? Basically I want to share my Interwebz connectivity.

P.S I have a Sam R530.

I've shared my modem dial-up with my wireless card, but still, it don't work.
 
Did you install/upgrade the drivers from Windows Update or download them from your Motherboard (if onboard) or card manufacturer website? The windows update method screws up my card too for some reason.

Tried rebooting wireless router and PC?

Tried to run a repair by right clicking on wireless icon at bottom right?
 
Manufacturer. Never use Windows update.

Tried rebooting, to no avail.

Repair didn't assist at all...

Well, it seems I have to reload my OS again...
 
Manual addressing assigned to the wireless card maybe? Under details in the above picture, does the IPs match that of your wired connection?

Also, go into cmd and type ipconfig /all and see what info you get. I'll assist if you haven't already reinstalled!

Ah the answer to all PC problems :D pity PC's and software are so complicated to have to regard format re-install as the answer to it all :(

Try the manual IP address thing hungrybeaver mentioned...and also something in very vague memory tells me I read about IPv6 causing issues like this long ago? Maybe try disabling IPv6 and see.
