Computer shows as connected... but we can not access the internet.

Original title: but alas... internet no.

Recently, we had this problem where our shows as connected pc... but we can not access the internet.  What I've been able to solve, is that somehow my IP settings change.

I'm going to "Obtain an IP address automatically" and "Obtain DNS server address automatically", but of course... when the problem occurs again I find that my "Obtain DNS server automatically an address" has been changed to "use the following DNS server address".

What is causing my computer to change my settings?

I think you're DIY too.  Normally, your computer and your wireless router assign dynamic IP addresses, and they change periodically - that is part of the security design.

In your case, the DNS server is the router.

Most of the time what you describe is your computer is able to find a wireless router but the router doesn't send an IP (its normal function).

This is usually:

  1. Your Internet service provider is down or your connection to it is broken.  If this is the case there is nothing you can do about it.
  2. Your computer network security key does not match the one in the router.

1 reset the modem & router.  Follow these instructions precisely: http://canadiantech.info/?page_id=136

2. If that does not resolve the problem, you must remove this network from your list of networks to manage Windows 7.  Then try to connect again using the network key, you know.

3. If this does not work, you will need to do a factory reset on the router and re - install the router according to the router set up instructions.

4. If after all the above does not correct the problem, you must replace your router.

  • When a user logs off Windows 7 x 64 session, the rest can not access the internet until the restart network card

    Hello! I found a problem with my system: when a user logs off Windows 7 x 64 session, the rest can not access the internet, until restarted network card. Reinstall NIC driver did not help. Problem appears on a built-in adapter, in the motherboard and a separate PCI card too.  Same router via its web interface is not accessible. Windows cannot automatically fix this problem after trying to diagnose a problem with his problem Diagnostic tool. After the diagnosis in the DETAILS window, MORE tests, it displays a message like this "computer remote can not receive a connection via the Internet (HTTP) Service Port". "Unplugging" a corresponding Local network connection and then reconnect solves the problem immediately. Switching between users, when two of them are connected do not cause this problem. Important: the problem occurs in the account of the user who was logged on the system FIRST after the PC was on, when the user disconnected on newspapers of a SECOND. If the SECOND user is logged in and the FIRST user disconnects, SECOND can still access the internet. It depends only on the sequence of the user's record, not on the particular user name. And one more interesting fact: after each user registered on and outside just for once, the problem seems to disappear until the PC is turned off and turn it back on!

    System details:

    Motherboard: ASUS P8Z77-VLK
    CPU: Intel Core i7 3770 K
    RAM: 8 GB
    OS: Windows 7 x 64

    Hi, Mahesh,

    and thank you very much for your help! Update firmware driver and router LAN did not help me get rid of my problem, but greatly improved my experience of networking in general. Anti-virus software was not guilty, also, but! I found the "iControl" network software, installed as part of Sogiciel 'AI Suite II' (that came on the CD of motherboard ASUS driverssoftware), runnning and causing not only the problem mentioned above, but would also decrease upload speed up to 0.3 MB/s, when download passes to nearly 100 Mbps! Moreover, searching the Internet, I have found a lot of complaints about the behavior of this software, so that people watch you the occasional installation of this piece... sweet ;) As "iControl network" has been uninstalled (not only turned off in the settings of 'Ai Suite II'!), I'm totally happy with my system performance.

    Best regards

  • Satellite A110-277: can not access the internet wireless

    Hello
    I have a Toshiba Satellite A110-277. We have wireless internet access in our House and it was workin fine, but since a few days I can not access the internet. My laptop is certainly recognizing internet connection wireless, but through IE or Firefox it just does not connect.

    For some reason, he worked briefly through Firefox, but then that stopped. I don't see what anyone, I have done differently, other than (finally) updated Windows Media Player, but why would that cause problems, I don't know!

    I would really appreciate help as soon as POSSIBLE, that the internet is my lifeline to work!

    I installed Windows XP but I can't access the internet. I checked the IPconfig and it is empty. The indicator light on the adapter is on green. Of course, the drivers are missing but whom?

    Go to your computer manufacturer's support web site
    and search for the Windows XP drivers for your specific computer or motherboard model number.

    If there are Windows XP drivers, then download to a folder on your hard drive and burn it to a CD/DVD.
    Then, after installing XP install all device drivers, starting with the card mother/chipset drivers.
    LAN, Audio, USB, SATA, etc, and so on.

    Note: If there is no XP driver listed, then your computer is not compatible Windows XP.

  • Tecra M5: Can not access the internet pages, but can ping in cmd.exe

    Hi all, this is confusing to me.

    I've been happily connected to my WLAN for more than a year without any problems. I recently updated my drivers for the following on my Tecra M5:

    -Intel Pro Wireless adapt
    -Drivers audio Sigmatel
    -nVidia graphics card

    Now, after facilities, everything was fine. However, a few days later, I turned on the laptop and went to IE7 and it cannot display the web page (my homepage is www.google.co.uk). I called my ISP to help and they reported problems on the service, and they gave me the www.google.co.uk ip address I got a response of in cmd.exe. It seems that I can get out on the internet but I can't access the Web pages - it could be a DNS issue?

    I have disabled my A - V and firewall and tried but get the same question. I also tried to restore the PC back more than a month and it did not help either. I'd appreciate any help that anyone can give.

    I also plugged the laptop directly into the router using an ethernet cable, so it's not only a wireless issue either.

    I have installed any other software at all at the moment and the only other thing that got my attention, it's that, in the field of restoration, there a lot of system restore points, which I wasn't expecting to see in the last month. But it could be a Kipper.

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    According to your message, you are not able to connect to internet via LAN and WLan. Is this good?

    Well, in your case I would first check the router settings and re still.
    In addition, you must reset the router.

    Usually, the router assigns the IP address, and therefore you would just plug the laptop LAN cable and then should be able to connect to the internet.
    Please note that the TCP/IP protocol settings must be set to automatic.

    Check everything first!

    Hello

    Make sure that you have the list of nat source configured to allow the VPN pool, if you want to use internet from the router or you can use split tunnel to allow only internal traffic on VPN

    example:

    SVC split Router (config-WebVPN-Group) # include 198.168.100.0 255.255.255.0

    SVC split Router (config-WebVPN-Group) # include 192.168.200.0 255.255.255.0

    Kind regards

  • Comments (Ubuntu) can not access the internet through host (XP)

    I used Google to find a solution as to why guest (Ubuntu) cannot access the internet. Host system is Windows XP. None of the solution has not worked for me. Solutions that worked for others: 1 activation NAT 2. Allowing the shared internet connection

    I think the problem is that my host and guest use different subnet masks default (respectively 255.255.0.0 255.255.255.0 vs) assigned by DHCP. The host's configuration manually to use the same subnet mask doesn't help either. I guess that I have it configured incorrectly.

    Welcome to the community,

    I think the problem is that my host and guest use different subnet masks default...

    Your configuration looks like, it has been changed manually! Default vmnet8 (NAT) on the host computer has an IP address like 192.168.x.1/24, comparable to vmnet1 (Host-Only). I suggest that restore you the configuration to its default settings that should work as expected.
