I've only dabbled in Vista so far, but since no one with more experience with Vista has offered a solution yet....... Do you have two firewalls running - Windows' and a third-party FW, including any FW that comes with your anti-virus? More than one firewall running at the same time can cause problems with a network. Also, I suggest you give more details about how your network/internet connection is set up.

right click on the "network" icon on the task bar -> diagnose->reset modem.
now the internet shuld work.
if it does, then you've done something wrong in configgin the modem/ in netwrk properties windows.

Havent touched yet any thing in the properties , this modem dosent have a proper driver too (for vista) so connected via lan

No pcs connected on network , using only kaspersky windows firewall is disabled .
