I am having trouble getting out to the Internet when I hook on to a wireless
network outside my office and at home – like at a restaurant or wireless hot
spot.

I use window xp which is completely up to date w all updates. I also use
Norton’s Internet security and anti virus.

When I go to a new wireless network and do a view wireless networks – I can
see and connect to the new network. Meaning I can see the network in my
“network connection” and under “details” I can see the IP address of the
network I am hooked to.

But, even though I am connect to the new wireless I can not get “out” to the
Internet.

I have Window’s firewall turned off, as i use the Nortons firewall in normal
use and then even turn my Norton’s firewall off and I still can not get to
the Internet on the new wireless network.

I have even typed the wireless IP address into the Norton’s excepted list
and I still can not connect.

Any suggestions on how to get to the internet on new wireless networks

Thanks
