Unable to open web pages in any browser, but, Yes, I am connected to the internet

Problems with my husbands laptop. So, I would like to re - format except Windows came pre-installed, and I do not have the disks.

Network Diagnostics show a connection to internet (in fact, I can see data sent/received). But, browsers will not open.

When I troubleshoot network connections it shows no error.

I ran anti-virus and anti-malware (since his account to Windows live mail maintains have hacked as well) and no program found no errors.
Windows update set to automatic and has downloaded Security patches (another reason, I know that the internet connection is fine). The important updates are installed as I write this.

We are in an office - all computers use the same router to access the internet and other computers do not have a problem. To check if it was a wireless issue (since my office has a wired connection), I turned my phone to a WiFi only, and it can still load pages.

What version of IE are you using? You should take a look at your Tools/Internet Options/connections/Lan Settings and see if there is a false Proxy Server configuration it. You can also take a look at your HOSTS file so that for the same sort of thing (as you have a PC in the Office working, you can compare the settings)

I hope this helps!

    With all the windows closed Firefox, hold the SHIFT key when you start Firefox. When you get the dialog Mode without failure, not the check boxes, click on continue mode without failure.

  • Unable to connect to the internet when the router is connected.

    I had a wired router, model number befsr41 v4.3 but ports got fried and I sent in replacement and got a replacement today. But I can't connect to the internet. When I go into control panel > LAN data packets are crossing. When I start setting up the drive it says that it cannot detect the router and make sure that its properly connected and try again. I followed the instructions on the disk exactly, even if I knew how to set up. Any ideas on why this might happen? I never had this problem with the first router I had. I can't yet full access to the top of the page as it is said that its taking to long to connect and it didn't.

  • Unable to connect to the internet, can't update firmware

    HP Envy 110a (D411a) printer all in one

    Installed and set up, everything has gone well and works. Tested on Win XP, Vista, Win 7 64, Apple laptop, iPhone 4, all prints wireless or USB. Now for the problem: it works on my home network, but it does not connect to the internet. Some applications only will be running, or the update of the firmware. They all say that I must be connected to the internet to continue. However, I was able to install ePrint and go to the website of eprintcenter.com, add my printer and see the status. He said that everything was good. I had to do this by using the internet, but why my apps does not nor will not update the firmware? Is it possible to download the firmware and install it via USB? I have a computer repair company and have had many problems with HP wireless printers. I don't recommend any HP product to my clients. But I was impressed by the look and quality of envy, and HP felt could repent of their sins and finally build a quality product. The property is everything printing wireless with little effort works. The bad is picky about the internet. Anyone have any ideas?

    GOOD NEWS!

    I apologize to HP. Yes, they repented of their past sins! The 110 is a great printer. I love the size, color and weight (heavy) of the printer. It seems very professional. The style looks more professional than any printer I've seen to date. All executives would like this printer. All the features now work as advertising. How do I solve this problem? I went from a Netgear router gigabit to a D-Link gigabit router. And then reconnected the radio wireless to the new network. Then he just started to work. I know that the Netgear is always a good router, but something deep in the default settings must have caused the HP does not to work.

    I don't work for HP, nor do I own their stock. I highly recommend this printer for serious users.

  • Equium A60-152: cannot open Web pages with USB modem broadband

    Hey man
    Bought a second hand Equium A60-152 today.
    Everything seems to work fine, but when I connect to the net using my modem high speed external USB I can't open web pages.
    It of the connection ok but does not do anything when it is connected.
    What I have to disable the built in modem so it can work properly?

    Long live man

    Waigy

    Hi Craig,.

    You should not have to disable the built-in modem in order to use your connection high speed USB.
    In fact, I usually recommend having both connections defined (a normal broadband and PAYG dial-up version). How can I access my ISP even when I'm somewhere that is not allowed to wide band.

    I guess that you can access your normal home page of ISP correctly? In which case I would suggest that you check the settings of your browser and your virus protection and firewall options.

    Kind regards
