Connected to network but no internet

Expand Post »
Hello.
I'm not the most computer literate, but I'll try to explain as best as I can.

I am using my laptop with Windows Vista Home Basic and a linksys router. My connection says it is connected, but when I open both browsers (Firefox and Internet Explorer 7) nothing happens except a message explaining it cannot connect to the server. Msn Messenger works perfectly fine, it seems to just be the internet from what I know. If there is anything else you need to know, let me know. Please help me, this is driving me insane.
Thank you.

Re: Connected to network but no internet

There is this problem with wireless connectivity on Vitsa laptops. There has been no hard and fast solutions for the same but 5 different methods worked for 5 different people ( though none for me ) Just search for " Vista wireless connectivity problem " on Google and the answers should appear.

Re: Connected to network but no internet

Okay, so I have done a few things. First, I visited the microsoft link someone provided and followed to the instructions on modifying something in the registry, that did not work. So I found another post similar to mine on another site and ran a few tests. Here is the original information for the ipconfig/all on cmd:

**Note:I've taken out the Ip Address because my father is paranoid about it, but if it is needed I will post it.**

The next thing I did was this:
TCP/IP stack repair options for use with Windows Vista.

Start, All Programs\Accessories and right click on Command Prompt, select "Run as Administrator" to open a command prompt.

In the command prompt window that opens, type type the following commands:

Reset WINSOCK entries to installation defaults: netsh winsock reset catalog

Reset IPv4 TCP/IP stack to installation defaults. netsh int ipv4 reset reset.log

Reset IPv6 TCP/IP stack to installation defaults. netsh int ipv6 reset reset.log

Reboot the machine.

I rebooted the computer and tried the internet, still nothing. I ran some tests with these instructions on the command prompt:
IPCONFIG /ALL

PING <computer_IP_address>

PING <default_gateway_address>

PING <dns_servers>

PING 206.190.60.37

PING yahoo.com


Here are my results:

Now what am I suppose to make of this information???!! I don't understand the numbers, but where the IP was pinged, I can see it failed. Why is that?

Re: Connected to network but no internet

I figured it out. Apparently there was still components of Norton on my computer, I used the Norton Remove Tool from the Symantec website, restarted and voila. Thanks for the support guys.
