WGR614v6 Windows Vista wireless Problem

Netgear WGR614v6 works well with XP desktop and Macbook wireless.  It works with new Vista Notebook wired but not wireless.  Notebook will connect through neighborhood  open link to internet.  Is the Netgear program for Vista  WGR614v6_vista_res.cd.beta.zip  different from the standard firmware 2.0.19_1.0.19.  HP remotely operated the Vista Notebook but could not solve the wireless link problem.

Notebook connects to WGR614V6

Notebook connects to WGR614V6 wired without problems, just not wirelessly. Neither HP nor I was able to identify the problem. It also connects wirelessly through a neighbor's unsecured Linksys router.

I'm totally having the same

I'm totally having the same problem. I can get full network abilities when I have a wired connection to the wgr614, i can also connect to the internet from other peoples wifi access points.
My Vaio pcg-k37, windows xp, connects wirelessly to the router, and I can get very little connectivity. it takes like 3 min to load the google page. other news websites simply wont load, however, when i turn off wifi, i get internet no problem and super fast.
please help.

I am having the same problem

I am having the same problem here. I bought a HP laptop last week. I had the same problem. I can only browse google.com when connecting with wireless. I was on the phone with HP and Comcast support several hours but they could not resolve the problem. I return the laptop to the store because I thought it is the laptopÂ’s problem. I bought another laptop (Windows Vista), same problem. I have another XP laptop home. No problem.

Netgear Wireless Cable Modem Gateway.
CG814WG
ISP: Comcast.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

I spend another 2 hours again with Comcast. No one seems understand this problem. I am very frustrated.
