Hi, I currently have a wireless network set up in my house but my problem is
that my windows xp pc is no longer able to get onto the internet while my
laptop can. It's shows that the local area connection is connected and is
sending bytes but not receiving them. Everything is connected correctly so I
have no clue what's going on. Could someone please help me out? Thanks.

Power cycle the router and the broadband modem. Reboot the computer.
Without additional information, it is impossible to diagnose. Which
router are you using?

I power cycled everything and nothing worked. I'm running a pc with Windows
XP and using a Linksys wireless router. I didn't change any of the settings
on my pc, it just happened randomly one day. I called my ISP tech support
and they said that it might be my network card.

I don't know how long ago this happened, but do you have a system
restore point prior to when this happened that you can go back to?

Other than that, sometimes viruses and malware can change
connectivity. It is tough to say. Anything in the event logs?
