Came across your site while researching an issue where my wireless would connect to my Lan, but no internet access. I followed your instructions to turn off ‘WebShield’ on my Avast Antivirus, and that seems to have cured the problem. I was excited to see your Network adapter repair tool and downloaded it and bookmarked the site in case something funny happens again. I ran the tool to see what it does, and as a systems administrator, I see that it essentially automates the many troubleshooting steps and fixes that one would go through when chasing down a connectivity issue.
Thanks for assembling all of that into such a handy tool!
Work perfectly..
