Can Ping But Cannot Connect To Internet - Wireless
Mar 20, 2010
I've searched through all previous posts but the solutions have not helped me. This is what is happening, I can connect to the internet if both my ethernet and wireless are connected. If I disconnect the ethernet cable I cannot connect to the internet but I can ping websites (I pinged google with zero packets lost). The wireless connection seems to be configured properly. Here is the ipconfig /all (with ethernet disconnected and wireless connected):

Windows IP Configuration
I was just connected to the internet and restarted my computer. Now I cannot connect. It is the starngest thing I can ping everythign via IP or by name however when I try to connect to the internet I get Cannot display this page. I have trid setting up a static IP and Obtaining an IP automatically. I am using a Linksys router and have reset it to test. All of my other computers connected via this router are working fine
i cannot connect to my internet connection from one computer, yet another computer in the network (both are connected to a switch and then to a modem outer) can. In cmd.exe in the run command, i can ping any web address with successful results yet i cannot connect to the internet. In the network connections box it shows no data travel between my computer and the server. i have recently installed ed2k and warez but removed both to try to fix the problem. i also tried turning the windows firewall off without effect. when typing in the address of my modem in internet explorer i get no connection either yet i can pping it from cmd.exe so i have no idea wats going on
It shows the available "unsecured" wireless connection but I am not connecting to it. I have tried the repair connection option but didnt do any good. Everthing was working properly until last week. I tried to roll back my computer settings but am unable to do this.
Have just set up a Dell Truemobile 2300 wireless router and fitted laptop with wireless card. The computer & router are talking to each other no problem, but IE and Outlook Ex will not connect to internet via the wireless connection. My broadband is from NTL set top box.
i bought a new lapto 3rd person worked great first two days now icannot conect to the internet .it says my connections are either unplugged or disconnected what do i do to get this stuff working right?
I just purchased a new HP computer yesterday. I have a linksys wireless connection. I cannot connect to the internet. I use microsoft explorer. I have been on the phone with Linksys, HP and Netgear for four hours to no avail.
I had to set my XP back to factory defaults (long story) and of course when I did that it wiped out all my stuff. I have my main computer hooked to a wireless router via a cable. The computer that I had to set back to factor defaults in the one with the wireless card. I reinstalled the wireless card software and it it talking to the router but I can't get to the internet.
I am running two computers(One PC and a Laptop, both on XP) on a small network. I have a Motorola Cable Modem, and a Motorola Wireless Router, which seems to be working fine. I can connect to the internet on the Laptop. However, the PC is the one that cannont. I'm not sure what is happening, but I've tried rebooting the PC and unpluging the modem for few seconds, but nothing yet. The Local Area Connection says-"Acquiring network address." And my IP address is currently 0.0.0.0
I have a wireless router 2 wireless comps and 1 wired, my wireless desktop won't connect to the internet but my other 2 will. It was like that all day yesterday then last night it finally connected, now today it won'tagain. I'm sure there's a virus that has corrupted something, I ran grisoft avg last night and it said 0viruses...then today 2 seperate times I got a message saying i hada virus and to click heal and i did and it said healed.
My toshiba laptop detected the wireless network in range, but when I try to browse nothing comes out!!!will reinstalling the windows solve the problem, to ensure that all drivers are defined??
I can't seem to be able to connect to my wireless Internet on one of the computers I have. (It's NOT a laptop) I plugged the router into the computer and it can't find my network, or any, really. It works on a different computer. I'm guessing the wireless config is turned off or something. I have played around with the computer and can't seem to turn it on. Where would it be located? I'll post updates as I get them.
I have too much info and would prefer not to have to do this. The problem is my wireless connection shows that I am connected at full strength but web connection will not show up. I ultimately have to put the computer on standby and then turn it back on before wireless will actually work. I thought it might be a problem with my router but it happens anywhere I go, with any wireless connection. My spouse has a laptop as well and he is able to connect everytime right away. Also just recently I plugged my earphones into my computer and they play through the phones as well as the speakers. Usually gateway has great help but not this time.
The wireless connection can't be established easily, I have to restart the system in order to connect, especially, when I wake my laptop from hibernation or standby. I updated the wireless adapter driver, I also changed the channel in which my laptop connects to. I read some articles that state the problem but after following almost all of them, I couldn't pull off anything. It takes many attempts to connect to my university wireless router. I would emphasize on the wake-up. I have 2 other laptops and they connect in a speed of light. All of the laptops have Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/BG Network connection and the same latest driver.
Sorry ...been a bad morning...move this to vista...all apologies
vista on a laptop cant get any pages...but i can ping external addresses like google in the browser i any address i type comes up with... http:\ ran a malware bytes scan...removed spyware this didnt help ran winsock repair...this didnt help
I had to do a System Recovery, when it was finished, I was able to access the internet via my wireless adapter. However, my computer is kind of old so I had about 78 updates after the recovery. After the updates, and the restart, I cannot now access the internet. I have Windows XP home edition, and My adapter is a Linksys wireless-g. What has changed
I have just re-installed Windows 2000 and I have a strong wireless signal to the usb adapter but cannot get connected to the internet. What is it about 2000 networking that is the trick to this? I have it set up to obtain an IP address automatically. By the way it is connecting to a wireless access point, not directly to the router. The access point is piggybacked off the main router.
I had a problem trying to connect my Canon Pixma 4000 so that I could access it wireless via our home LAN. I have one laptop(the wife's) attached directly to the router (cable service from Optimum). My laptop is used wirelessly from another part of the home. All was working well, except I could never get the printer to work so that I could use it wirelessly, so I had it plugged in directly to my laptop. Up to this point, it was all ok. I have AVG and ZoneAlarm running on both computers. A friend, (really) was at my home and volunteered to connect the printer so that it would work wirelessly. He is a UNIX administrator, manages a number of pc's too. I thought, "this is great, my own administrator".
To shorten the story, he removed ZA, the computer will not work wirelessly, only works when connected directly to the modem and the printer doesn't work wireless. I called ZA, and they guided me through removing all the "orphans" that were left behind, so that cleared up a problem whereas I could connect to the net, but couldn't get to another url. I did not re-install ZA yet, because I don't want to add anything else into the mix. I will post a HJT log if that is what is needed. I DO NOT care if the printer works wirelessly. I will live with it connected to the back of my computer, BUT, I do want my laptop to work wirelessly so that both me and my Frau can be on-line at the same time. I have been through the IP address checking, all is ok there. If I try to connect via the SYSLINK wireless, I get nothing, even PING ing different sites gets no valid response. Regrettably, I have some tech knowledge, but not enough to figure out this one.
I followed the advice of the sticky above and with my "refreshed" XP Home Installation on my Dell Desktop, I can't connect to the Internet. The "find a connection" Wizard seems to want to find a dial-up connection and nothing in the way of broadband. I use a Linksys Wireless G PCI Adapter card. The reinstallation did not wipe out any documents or user created files, so am wondering if there is a place in the old Windows files that I can use to get my old connection?
I have been using a Belkin Wireless Router on my XP Pro system for some time but now it will not connect to the web. I think the problem has been caused by a virus but my system appears clean now. As it stands I cannot access the Router Configuration because the message "Network Not Available" appears. I have been in contact with my ISP, Belkin and have replaced the router with a new one all without success. I have looked into the WZCSVC and other services and when checking the dependencis the nessage "WMI:Critical Error" appears. All settings on the system are correct for setting up the router but it will not access the web. it seems the computer will not allow the router to "talk" to the web. Whatever caused the problem also appears to have deleted the system restore poits.
I have this problem. I cannot access Internet. I'm trying with an ADSL connection and with a cable connection trough a LAN with a router. I can ping the router and access other computers in the LAN, but no internet. I have already reinstalled windows, but no success.
My home wireless network is connected at excellent signal strength, and the other computer on the network can access the internet, but once or twice a day, none of the browsers on my operating system can load anything until I restart. Also, TrendMicro can't update until restart. Possibly related: The last time this happened, I checked task manager and found two copies of rundll32.exe, but only one copy once I restarted. The computer was nuked about a month ago, I've kept my user privileges to the minimum and I perform frequent updates and scans, so a trojan seems unlikely, but maybe it's a driver problem? Also, on one occasion the wireless showed limited/no connectivity, but this is not usually the case.
Both wireless and eathernet cable. Using modem ok now with other laptop. Self diagnosis and tech at telco seems to indicate a problem within laptop. Couple of things came up: "Error TCP/IP adapter binding" and "TCP/IP not connected". Tech asked if I hit a keyboard key that shut it down. They referred me to Toshiba. I think I tried all the "Control Panel..Internet Connection" stuff.
Recently added a wireless card and put it on my home network. It ran fine for a couple of weeks, but now it is running painfully slow. Just booting the machine and getting the start menu to come up takes forever. Every application is painfully slow and I am unable to connect to my network.
I'm setting up my friends home network. They have 2 PCs connected via ethernet and one laptop on wireless. The router is a wireless router / modem from 2wire. PC number 2 and the laptop both connect with no issues. PC number 1 is weird though. I can go to 192.168.1.254 and it opens up the router system page and I can go through and change and view settings. However when I try to go to any websites it immediately goes to "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage." I have tried netscape and the iTunes store and nothing can connect to the web. I have linux ubuntu on a Live CD and I can boot from that and it connects to the internet just fine.
After long periods of my internet connection being idle (2+ hours usually), all programs requiring internet access are unable to connect. By idle I mean I leave to run some errands with no programs other than Zone Alarm running. My DSL modem still has all lights flashing and active. There are a couple other scenarios where this occurs as well. Ex. I'm playing WoW for extended periods but not using the internet through any other program, then upon alt-tabbing no other applications are able to connect to the internet even though WoW is still connected and functioning. Rebooting the router/modem doesn't fix it, but rebooting the comp does.
do internet users get assigned a unique ip address everytime you connect to the internet? and what is the difference between a ip address and a mac address? different types of a networks?
