Was trying to configure a router the other day.. IP address give via routers
dhcp (also tried static), fine but because vista couldn't find an internet
connection it assumed the worse, said limited access with a yellow bang and
I couldn't even ping the router.

Tried it with my old xp machine and everything was fine.

I cant work out which settings kills this annoying feature.

Any ideas?
