    Hi everyone, Newbie here. Sorry, I meant to put dv2000. I received an HP dv2000 with Vista for my birthday, this is my first PC, am a former Mac user. I have a Belkin N router and my notebook won't connect, says it is connected with limited connectivity but I can't browse the internet . When I put the ethernet cord directly into the notebook it connects fine but it won't connect wirelessly. Everyone else in my house has a mac and they are connecting fine. Can anyone give me advice on how to make my notebook connect automatically to my wireless.

    yep, could be........

    is your router just using N mode or g/n??? Make sure your card is compatible with what you have the router set to.
