Well after trying everything known to man and beast and being on the phone until 12:20am she said i needed a new wireless card. Seems the one they initially used to build Dells with Vista don't work very well with Vista. Even though I have good signal strength, the latest drivers it spuriously connects. It arbitrarily looks for an invalid IPv4 address.

New updated latest wireless card will be here in 2 days and she is going to call and help me set it up to be sure.

In the meantime during all the download, waiting for a restart and watching her remotely check the computer I learned:

She is 26
Speaks perfect English
Just graduated college with a BS in Computer Science.
Lives on the outskirts of Manila
Not married
2 Sisters
Favorite color is purple
Likes long walks on the beach
Has never eaten dog or monkey meat

Is that close enough to raspberry for you, though? :confused:

Almost sounds like it's trying to default to the hard-wire connection (network cable comment) when something goes amiss. Just for kicks and giggles, go into the Network control panel and disable the internal Ethernet (right click on the icon for the enet connection, select Disable). Reboot and see if the wireless works any differently.

We tried everything. Upon boot it does immediately look for wireless and connects, the problem is it randomly sets IP addresses and can't connect. Ran a ping test 5 times, the first 4 it sent 4 packets and RX none, 5th time it sent 4 and RX 3. It is a problem communicating to the wireless network.

She said it is a common problem with the first desktops with this particular wireless card. She said the new card should work fine.

We will see.

Not very adventurous at the table, probably not very adventurous in other aspects of her life.


If she won't eat young dog, she probably won't eat old dog :lol:

they're still open, I went there 2 weeks ago for lunch. Emily sold the place to a very nice korean lady. She serves both korean and filipino food.

Pete, make sure you ask how tall she is, she's probably as tall as your son :lmao:
