Guest kim Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 First of all, I'm very bad with computers. All of my wireless connections are now locked(they were working fine yesterday)including linkys. My internet has never been really fast, but now it's gone. How can I unlock the connections again?

There make sure the Machine Get assigned Automatically IP address and Renter the Encryption Key and the Network SSID then click [OK]. = Click start >> Control Panel >> Double Click Network and Internet Connections >> Double click Internet Options, on the IE Properties window you will see these Options: General | Security | Privacy | Content | Connections | Programs | Advanced. Click on Connections tab and make sure the Connection is listed there then click on LAN settings button and uncheck Automatically detect settings. Click [OK] and close Hit F5 and open a run command and type in: ipconfig /flushdns click [OK] ipconfig /renew click [OK] netsh winsock reset click [OK] Reboot your machine and see if you can access the Internet?
