Hey, I've been having a ton of problems with fixing my connection with my wireless network. A few months ago, I lost connection on my desktop computer and I reconnected... however, it didn't actually connect. When I hovered my cursor over the Wireless Network Connection icon, it just said "Acquiring Network Address" and never connected. I got onto my laptop and did a quick search on the problem. A few wrong moves later, and I couldn't even find my wireless network. Despite all of my attempts at creating a connection, I still have no internet. I've even tried plugging my computer into my WRT54G router via cable, and still no connection. It's not the router that's the problem, though, as my two other computers and xbox have perfect internet connection. I'm not sure what is wrong, but if anyone has any idea, that'd be great. I use Windows XP, I use a WRT54G router, I have Mediacom high speed internet, and that's about all I know.

As rest of the computer's are working just fine I suspect there is some problem with the Wireless computer...You should certainly update the drivers for your Wireless Adapter... Which Wireless Adapter you are using on your Computer ?

I.... don't know. I do, however, have a screenshot of the Network adapters section of the device manager: 
EDIT: Oh, and how do I update a driver when I'm not connected to the internet? Is there a way I can download it to a CD? Like I've said, I've tried to connect it manually via cable to my router and nothing happened. Message Edited by CivBase on 08-05-2009 04:16 PM

Well you can download the Drivers for your Adapter from the Linksys Website. Go to the Computer which is able to go Online. Go to website linksysbycisco.com/downloads.........insert model no of your adapter in serach tab......select proper version of your adapter........download the drivers file......save that file on desktop. The Drivers will be in a .Zip format, you need to unzip it. Once its done, you can save the File into your Flash Drive or you can Burn it on a Blank CD. Now try to install the drivers on your Computer.
