Hi all, 

My trouble started out when I couldn't get an internet connection at all and I got the error "dependency service or group failed to start". I went through the following steps:

Reset winsock
reset tcp/ip
Reinstalled winsock
Reinstalled TCP/IP

Then I was just getting the Local Access Only on my wireless connection. 

I can see that it's not getting an IP address, so I set it to automatic and that didn't help. DNS is set to auto too. 

I reset winsock and tcp/ip again just to be sure and that didn't help.

I disabled IPv6 and changed the IPv4 IP addresses from automatic to the following:

192.168.1.200 for the IP
255.255.255.0 for subnet mask
192.168.1.1 for default gateway
192.168.1.1 for DNS server

And restarted and that didn't seem to help either. 

So now I'm out of ideas and google-able things so I'm turning to you for help! Any ideas are appreciated! Below is my info as of now:

According to your output, your wireless adapter is obtaining an IP address OK. It's the VPN adapter that is not able to. Make sure your VPN client is not connected when you are just trying to access the Internet. If you dont need it, uninstall it.

Hi and thanks for the advice. I un-installed The VPN and restarted and it didn't ssem to change anything connection wise with my wireless. Here is the new info:

Open a comman prompt. What happens when you PING 192.168.1.1?

Results fail? Then go to drive manager, uninstall wireless and rescan and reinstall.
