Using WPS To Connect To Internet?

Dec 26, 2012

I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium, Service Pack 1. I'm on an Asus G51Jx laptop.I'm currently at my grandparents house, and naturally they have no idea what their wireless password is. In order to avoid changing it (and possible having some awkward confrontations with my uncle) I'm trying to connect to their internet using WPS (on a 2wire router, if that's any help).Now, I was able to use my blackberry to connect with WPS, but I haven't had the same success with my laptop. According to the Windows help site, I should be getting a window that looks like this, but all I'm getting is this window.

Unable To Connect Use Internet. 'Limited Internet Access'

Nov 17, 2011

i recieved my new lenovo z570 ideapad yesterday...i'll just put some of the spec down incase you want to know.

proccessor: intel i5 (second gen)
graphics: nvidia geforce
os: windows 7 64bit
yadayadayada...

anyway, after charging it up and turning it on, i started to install programmes and other bits and bobs. e.g ituens, flash player. just the usual essentials. i used the laptop to watch videos on Internet, genenral browing such as facebook, so in short, the internet was working fine. just before i went to bed that night i installed avg security (free version) and ran a full scan. when the scan finished, i put the laptop into hibernate, and went to sleep! happy in the knowledge my new gizmo was running smoothly!

just before i woke up i heard the laptop turn off as it had run out of charge. so i plugged it in and charged it up, then turned it on. this is where the problem starts...i connected via wifi however the logo at the bottom right of the screen showed the signal strength meter on empty, with a yellow star covering it. i clicked the icon, and it said, 'not connected, connections are available' and below shows im connected with 5/5 signal strength, but on 'limited access'.

1) there might be a problem with the driver for the local area connection adapter

2)there might be a problem with the driver for the wireless network connection adapter

there are 28 updates, but im unable to update them as i have no internet connection. i also cant connect via the ethernet cable.i cant roll back the drivers as there are no previously installed ones, and i cant update them as i am already up to date.my other laptop (acer aspire 5630 running on vista) works perfectly fine using wifi and the ethernet cable, so i honestly dont know whats wrong. after reading things on my acer about ways to fix the problem i came to the decision to restore the laptop to the time of my first installation which was adobe flash player (which i installed the day before.) i was unable to do a full factory reset as the only options available are to either restore to a backup, or re-install windows (which requires a disc, which i dont have). i also didnt configure a backup as i had only had the laptop a day!

Can Connect To Internet But Can No Longer Connect To 198.192.1.1

May 18, 2012

I CAN connect to internet just fine using my wifi BUT I CAN NO LONGER connect to 198.192.1.1!!! Any idea how to solve this problem? I'm using a Dell Insprion 1545 and Win7 32-bit. I never had this issue before, jut popped up when I tried using ICS on a different laptop, an IBM thinkpad T42 also using Win7 and connected to the same network via wifi. Again I can connect to the internet just fine on all my laptops, but 192.168.1.1 (for my netgear router) returns "unable to connect" page!!! have verified (via ipconfig) that my gateway ip is 192.168.1.1. I have valid IPs on all the laptops, but cannot connect to router setup page.

Can't Connect To Internet With IE?

Oct 29, 2010

When I open IE all I get is "Internet Explorer cannot display the web page." I know it is connecting to the internet because it downloaded the updates. I downloaded AVG, Adaware SE and Spybot Search and Destroy on another computer. I put these files on a cd. I tried to install AVG and Spybot but they wouldn't install because they couldn't connect to the internet to get the necessary files to install. I've had this problem on friends computer some time ago but can't remember exactly what I did to fix it

Can't Connect To Internet

Aug 27, 2012

I am fixing my mom's cousin's laptop Dell Inspiron 1750, which is unable to access the internet. This system runs Windows 7 and can't connect to any router wirelessly. The ethernet port on the laptop also has some bent pins in it, so it can't connect through wire either. The first thing I did when I looked at this computer was connect it to my wireless router and I got the limited connectivity symbol in the taskbar. So I tried to ping and did ipconfig /release and /renew in cmd and that didn't work. I also did a /flushdns and that didn't work. So I went into the internet options and checked if the DNS setting were set to acquire automatically and they are. I have also uninstalled the dell wireless utility as I find it bloatware and unnecessary. I uninstalled the WLAN driver and reinstalled it and that didn't do anything. I then went into safe mode with networking and discovered that I was able to connect wirelessly there. So i figured it could have been the antiviruses (McAfee) firewall or malware of some kind. I downloaded malwarebytes and scanned and found nothing so I uninstalled malwarebytes and so I figured it was McAfee.

The last few days I've been having trouble accessing a website on my ISP so I downloaded a program called MaskSurf to get around the problem. It reduced my connection speed a bit but nothing serious. Today when I went to boot up my computer, I can't access the internet at all.

Cannot Connect To Internet

Mar 13, 2012

I very recently got rid of a trojan with the guidance of others. To be sure it was gone, they recommended I use combofix. After running the program, I am now unable to connect to the internet. I've run the network adapter troubleshooter which tells me "There might be a problem with the driver for the network bridge adapter."

Can't Connect To The Internet

Jun 30, 2012

I just bought a new PC and a Linksys USB network adapter. The adapter manages to connect to the router, however I do not have internet access. This is weird because all the other computers in my house are able to connect to the internet no problem. This is the second adapter I bought that has this problem they worked on another computer so that isn't the problem. What's weird is that when I tethered internet from my phone, I was able to connect my PC to my phone. I have all the drivers up to date.

Can't Connect To The Internet

Sep 28, 2012

I am not sure what is going on but I cannot connect to the Internet and Windows Network Diagnostics says that the DNS sever is not responding. I have it set to obtain an IP address and a DNS server automatically... Still doesn't work.

If you want me to tell you what ipconfig/all says please tell me exactly what you are looking for because I actually have no way of getting a file from my computer onto my phone right now. However the default gateway, dhcp, and DNS are all 192.168.2.1 while the ipv4 is 192.168.2.2 <preferred>.

Also, this happened when I had an iPad in transferring music, and I unplugged my Internet wireless adapter and plugged it into a different USB port, or at least I think that is when it happened. At any rate I got a message saying something about an IP address conflict which I did not pay much attention to.

One other detail is that it is not just my computer that can't connect. My iPhone and my friends iPad that I had plugged in so I could transfer music from my iTunes to his iPad cannot connect either..

My router has been acting strange and after I reset it I've been unable to go online.I tried pinging a few areas to determine the source of the problem but I'm still confused. Here's my "ipconfig /all" record which also shows the addresses I successfully and unsuccessfully pinged.-Running Windows 7 starter 32bit.-It's probably not the network drivers as I've been able to connect to other routers perfectly fine.

Can't Connect To Internet

Apr 29, 2012

I have had a new custom-build PC, with Windows 7 64-bit, for about 2 months. I've had no problems, but the other day my internet connection suddenly cut out, and I have not been able to retrieve it.I can connect to the network, but can't get any internet access. The troubleshooter claims the DNS server isn't responding.I've tried many of the common fixes I saw when I Googled the problem, including 1) trying to use the Google DNS servers (8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4) and other recommended servers (208.67.222.222 / 208.67.220.220) ; 2) re-installing the wireless adapter and its drivers ; 3) restarting the DNS and DHCP client in Administrative Tools -> Services ; 4) tried the 'netsh int ip reset' command in command prompt.I also tried the ipconfig / command prompts. When I tried ipconfig /release, it told me 'media disconnected'.Does this mean it's a hardware problem rather than software? Is my internet adapter broken?

Laptop Can't Connect To Internet

Jun 10, 2011

Just bought a new lap top HP Pavillion few weeks ago, the laptop found my wireless network straighaway and all ok for last couple of weeks.Just this week for no reason at all my laptop can't connect to the internet, I get a yellow fuzzy or a hazard sign over the signal icon, if I hover over it says connection strength excellent, I see my network, click connect, I wait, prompt for the diagnostic, then it just says "cannot connect to the internet" My old laptop is XP and has also lost the internet.The actual desktop PC has internet connection as it is hard wired from the blue ethernet. So I plugged the blue ethernet cable directly into the laptop it took a while but finally connected but after a short while it went again even though it was still physically connected.My next step was to power down the router and the cable modem, still no joy.I went to PC world and they suggested installing any updates, which I did (apart from the IE9), still no joy.

Unable To Connect To Internet?

Jan 17, 2012

When I first reinstalled the windows 7 it worked fine and I was connected to the Internet using my belkin USB adapter. But after moving my computer to a new room the Internet connection stopped working. Ive ran trouble shooters over and over and it says its a router or adapter issue, but all the other computers in the house are connected to the Internet just fine. I've reconfigured everything, restored and I was told to post here!I also want to add that it connects to the Internet but after about a minute it gets the triangle with the ! And acts connected but I cannot open any web pages or open any online games.When I trouble shoot it still tells me that Its in the adapter, router, modem, gateway or related issue.
