I have just bought a older sony vaio with windows vista on it and am trying to connect using my verizon mifi 4g lite. When I connect the laptop shows I am receiving the signal but wont log onto any website, if i click on the wi-fi signal and click on network and sharing center it shows user-pc then a green line to my wifi device but then the line going to the globe (internet) has a red x on it , if I put my mouse over that x it says click to diagnoseand I do that. It then says identifying the problem and comes up with cannot communicate with primary DNS server(85.255.115.43). below that it says network diagnosticas pinged the remote host but did not receive a response, and gives me an option saying reset the network adapter"wireless network connection" and I click that and it says repairing. Then half way though the repai it stops and says checking for other problems and then a box pops up saying-windows tried a repair but a problem still exists Cannot communicate with Primary DNS Server(85.255.115.43).
I tried calling verizon to get a little help but all they want me to do is reset my wifi device, its the computer not the wifi device I am using another laptop hooked to it right now to type this. Please any help would be great thanx
