Hi,

Thanks for responding. I've checked DNS settings - all connections
are configured through DHCP. The VPN takes over all routing when
enabled, but when it's disabled the connection settings are correct
for my home router.

What's confusing me is that everything worked as expected with the old
Netgear Super-G card ... but now that I have a new card, IE alone
refuses to use it while all my other network apps work as before. And
everything, including IE, works as before using the internal 11b
radio. I can't figure out why there is a difference with the new
hardware.

George
