I've looked everywhere and tried so many things nothing has worked. My cable is fine, I reinstalled my driver and changed my speed/duplex settings to everything but nothing worked I had AVG AV and I removed it from my computer and also took down my firewalls from windows and still nothing. I upgraded my linksys WRT54G router. I cam currently using windows vista sp2 and connected to my router via wireless connection. It says unidentified network and local only, please help.

If you have not fixed this yet here are a couple of things to do.

I take it you are trying to connect via the 10-base T cable instead of the wireless.

1) Check for link lights on both the Router and the NIC card.

2) Try setting the wired connection to a fixed IP address on the local network. In your case I would use the following:

IP 192.168.1.50
Netmask 255.255.255.0
Gateway 192.168.1.1

DNS1 68.105.28.11
DNS2 4.2.2.2

Then do a power down reboot and unplug the wire from the NIC.

3) If you still cannot connect lets see how far you can get by pinging various IPs. Start with the local card, then the router, then an IP on the internet and finally an address using DNS.

ping 192.168.1.50
ping 192.168.1.1
ping 4.2.2.2
ping google.com

Let me know how it goes.

It looks more like there is a valid address assigned to the wireless already. Why don't you try to disable the other connection so there are no conflicts.
