I can confirm this is also a problem with a Netgear 834G router. Vista shows
as connected to internet, but cannot get a connection at all. Netgear router
asks you to log on, but then will not go any further.

Disabled the settings as below, and that worked fine (thanks guys).

One thing to note..... Vista's good, but without a working internet
connection, it wouldn't last long on my PC !!!

Disabling the CHECKSUMs for for IPv4 and IPv6 fixed me up in 32-bit 5600.

I have a Linksys router as well as the Yukon NIC, and no problems with
Beta2. When I upgraded to RC1 I lost some internet conectivity. Oddly
a few sites like slashdot would work normally, but most would not work
at all. No issues with connecting to shares on the home network.

I installed the vista driver from marvell's site, and the problem was
cured.

What do you mean by "release or shortly after" ? The final release?

Oddly, I too installed the Yukon beta driver, and still, no luck on RC1.
Same network slowdown issue. I also tried disabling the verious checksum
options, no help.
