How do you change (Access: Local) to (Access: Local and Internet)?

See, I have 2 laptops (one is my sisters, the other mine) and we both get our internet from the same rotor. And it works or whatever but it's a bit off on somedays.

But see my sister's laptop (this one) has the internet connection as (Access: Local and Internet) but mine says (Access: Local Only)...





How can I change it to Local and Internet?



Thanxx, your answers are appreciated..How do you change (Access: Local) to (Access: Local and Internet)?It would be helpful if you could specify what router you have. On you're router there should be MAC address filters. If you don't know what a MAC address is than open command prompt (start, run, cmd) or for vista just type cmd in the start menu. Once you know you're MAC address go into your router by going to internet explorer and typing something such as 192.168.0.1 for me at least. If you have for example a Motorola router you may see something such as wireless and MAC filters. Your MAC address is more than likely not allowed. Hope this helped :)How do you change (Access: Local) to (Access: Local and Internet)?REBOOT THE ROUTER. You lost the %26quot;handshake%26quot; between the two devices. Once you do that you will be ok. You may need to reboot the pc but I highly doubt that
