    Is anyone else having problems with RC1? I am connected to my home network I can ping my network from computer with good response but cannot connect to web pages. I ran a MD5 check sum on both the DVD and download not problems. I had not problem with Beta 2 or pre-RC1. WTF Am I the only one having problems. :mad: Even the diagnose tool does not work!!!!

    No problems here. Although I have a wireless security client for my school's network and it recognizes my wireless card as a wired one... but that's probably compatibility thing. But no networking troubles here.

    Actually, I'm having problems now too. I came home from school today and I cannot connect to my network. I had no problems with Beta 2, but RC1 just won't connect. It sees the network, but it sits there trying to connect for minutes but never will. That sucks.

    Well i had a problem back in beta 1. I think it was fixed by removing the drivers and reinstall them.

    Yeah, I think I'll try reinstalling the Intel drivers again.

    And holy crap, talk about the spam...

    Okay, installed Dell's Intel drivers and all is right again. :) I'm writing this from RC1 actually.
