I am servicing a customer's laptop, a Toshiba Satellite L305-S5885, running Vista Home Premium x86 SP2, with malware infections and internet connection issues. I have gotten rid of all her 251 infections, and now am addressing her connectivity problem. I am unable to achieve internet connectivity on either her ethernet, or wireless connections. Both network connections state "Unidentified Network", and also "Access: Local Only" All of the other machines hooked up to my router, some via CAT5e and some via 802.11g/n, have internet connectivity with excellent speeds, so I know the problem is confined to her machine. I have tried the following;
Disabling and re-enabling both connections: FAIL.
"Diagnose and repair" on both connections: FAIL.
Uninstall all network devices via Device Manager and restart: FAIL.
The ipconfig /all text follows:
