Hey

My laptop won't connect to the internet if the host computer (the one connected to the router) isn't on and connected to the internet. It says I have limited connectivity when I try to connect. Basically, I get through to the local network but not the internet itself. I turned off the firewall setting on my host computer but it didn't fix anything. I also tried the "diagnose and repair" option but nothing happened..

is it a compatibility issue ?

any reply is highly appreciated.

  1. Just for more information, what sort of modem you are using, Is it wireless modem and how many ports are at the back of the modem.


  2. How are the 2 computers connecting to the internet are they connecting via ethernet into a router or are the connected wirelessly sound to me like computer 2 is getting its connecting through computer 1 however without more infomation on setup its a little hard to answer.
