    Hi, i have a dell studio 1535, work very well, at home anyway, connection wise.
    I am with virgin media, when i go to my GF place or work or anywhere i can't connect to any wireless network,

    Don't have any problem at home to connect.

    I managed to find that the internet IP ping failed when running a connection diagnostic. But don't know what or where to go from there. Any help welcome.

    Thank you

    Can you connect to the wireless router? Or is it just the internet connection that's not working?

    HI, bit of both, connection always looking for IP adress, only connect time to time to internet via W.E. but doesn't work via Firefox.

    It look like that something is interfering with the connection, always connected / disconected.
