Wireless

Hello, I have a brand new Toshiba Satellite computer with Vista. It has an
internal wireless card. When I'm at a place, like Starbucks, a hotel, etc.
that offers free wireless internet access I'm not able to go online. I tried
everything that I could think of to get connected. Actually, it tells me
that I am connected, however, I cannot go online. What do I need to do to
solve this problem. I really appreciate any help. I travel frequently and
it is very frustrating to not be able to check my email, etc.

Thanks for your help. Heidi

In the network connection, have you tried unticking IPv6?
