Did you try doing a ping using an ip? I'm sorry this happened to you but its interesting and I'd like to know more about what happened and what you find.

Well, my desktop is running fine with my home network. I even did a hard-wire network to the laptop without any success. So, the problem is limited to the laptop. I did try to ping an external IP without success. I was able to ping the laptop's own IP address, default gateway, etc. without any problem. Just couldn't seem to get anything outbound.

I've got the laptop back to normal and am going to try the re-install of the 6700 usb drivers again, take careful notes of what happens and when to see if I can re-create the problem.
