Receiving IP address from Router but NO Internet Connection

Jan 8th, 2005
I have a laptop with an integrated Intel Wireless G network card that once worked flawlessly with my Linksys 802.11G router. Now all of a sudden, I can connect to the router (I know this because when I run IPCONFIG it shows the correct default gateway of 192.168.2.1 and it assigns an IP address to the laptop) but am unable to PING or browse any websites whatsoever. I suspect that it has something to do with a windows DNS problem but have no idea how to fix it. Even if I hardwire the PC to the router I still have the exact same problem. Get an IP, but no browsing capabilities. I’m stumped.

Thank you

Jason

Was the router unpluuged for over a period of 2 minutes? To were it may have lost all configuration? That happened to me, so i had to reset all the SSID etc, and re allocate all the data. Took me about 3.2 minutes to do, lol. Im hardwired now, im sick of wireless.
is this a dream

Well, there are other computers on the wireless network that still work just fine, and the fact that the wireless laptop is receiving a IP address would indicate that the router is functioning correctly no? I seem to think its a Windows problem but I will certainly try that. Any other possibilities?

Tried, it, still same problem. It was just too weird because one second it worked, and not of course, there is nothing, Once again, there is an IP address being given to me by the router 192.168.2.1 but I can not browse the internet or ping anything, even the router?? What is going on here.

192.168.2.1, is default to log in to the router or monitor a net work. The ip must be released and reset. Also is your PC recieving pockets?
Im not on windows atm, so if you dont mind could you please run cmd from the start>RUN button, then type in ipconfig/all then copy and paste the info to me, so i can give it an thurough look, as well as the rest of the board.

Im sorry, your right, that is the IP for the router, the IP the machine was receiving was something like 192.168.2.105, my error. The laptop is a clients machine that I do not have my hands on at the moment. All I can say is that when I did an ipconfig /all on the machine I received that IP address from the router and it had 192.168.2.1 as the default gateway. I also tried ipconfig /release, ipconfig /renewal, and ipconfig /flushdns and then restarted, same problem.

Thanks alot,

Jason

ya i was looking to see if you had a default gateway, and im sure you have DHCP to automatically hand you an IP address. Do you think maybe your connection is too slow for how many devices you are running off it, as you said you have multiple PC's connected, whats your connection speed. For a router its recommened to use 3mb, or more. I use less thent hat becasue i pay for it my self, and well i am not made of cash.

Hey Jason, was reading your post with some interest as I am planning on getting a WiFi Router in the near future. What was your solution? Could you post it for us here.

Have been reading allot about DHCP problems between PC's and Linksys Router/Firewalls (had to fix a roommates problem with a hardwired connection). Was hoping that this would not be the issue.

For my roommates hardwired laptop, we replaced the ethernet cable (I was surprised that this fixed the problem), obviously with WiFi, replacing a cable would not do it, lol.

if not have a look at your firewall software. Or may be your winsock has been corrupted.

It is so wierd that I have the same problem a year after you were talking about it!! I just posted a thread yesterday regarding the same issue.

One additional thing that I observed was I am able to browse the internet in safe mode. I am just drained trying to figure out what the problem is!! Any help?
