Solved: Windows Vista - 'limited access' to network.

Hi,

Our Dell laptop running Vista is having problems connecting to the internet. Having worked for years it has suddenly stopped. It will connect to our access point however it says its connected with limited access and cannot open any web page.

We have booted into a live Ubuntu instance and the laptop connects to the router and the internet perfectly.
In Windows I have updated the drivers, using Windows Device Manager; 'forgotten' the network (removed its wireless profile); and tried running the Windows trouble shoot feature however nothing seems to work.

Any help would be very much appreciated!
