I have 2 hard drives. One 32 bit, another 64 bit for editing video working in the same system. I decided to move away from Vista and into Windows 7. While the 32 bit hard drive had no problems upgrading from Vista, the 64 bit is having a ____ of a time connecting to the internet. I've researched this problem in depth for the last several days, and it seems several people are having the same trouble with windows 7 64 bit. Although I'm not an IT person, I am a power user, and have tried several things suggest throughout these forums. 1)I've reset the modem for days, 2) I've reset the wireless router (Netgear Rangemax WNDR3300 - fully compatible with windows 7), 3) I've made sure the wireless router firmware is up to date. 4) I've made sure the IP and DNS look ups are automatically under both TCP/IPv6 and TCP/IPv4) 5) I've turned off firewalls. 6)I've released and renewed IP addresses. 7)I've used the netshell to clear the ARP. 6) I've bypassed the wireless router and went straight into the Comcast cable router. That did it. But in my office configuration I need to have the wireless router working for both my 32 bit and 64 bit hard drives.It's clear what's going on-- in windows 7 64 bit the dns look up can't find a server address through the wireless router. It does just fine when I bypass it. I can see a garbled number 100000 and a bunch of zeros after when I'm connected through the router.I've tried everything I can think of, and I'm out of options. Please help! Thanks in advance.

Hi, Since Internet can be accessed fine via wired cable after bypassing the router, we can conclude that the issue can occur by incorrect Wireless router settings or incompatible Wireless adapter driver. At this stage, I suggest you try the following steps to troubleshoot the issue. 1. Uninstall the Wireless adapter driver in Device Manager and reinstall it in Compatibility Mode. 2. Assure the SSID and passphrase is the same for the router config page. If the issue persists, please reset the Wireless router without any encryption for a test. Thanks, Novak
