Hi I am new to the forum and have a problem with internet connection. My old router works well with my XP windows system (ie computer spoke to router and in turn it speaks to internet). Could not hook up the new laptop (Windows Vista) so got a new router (Belkin) and now both connect machines connect to router but both will not connect to internet. Does it have something to do with ISP? At my wits end to sort it.
