Windows thinks the internet is connected, but nothing works

ilikegirls · Oct 17, 2014

So I've tried going into cmd and releasing and renewing but still nothing. I then test the ping function in cmd with ping www.google.com but that didn't work as well.

Any thoughts?

Edit: This thread is in the wrong place, sorry! I am running windows 7. If a mod could move this I would greatly appreciate it!

Try pinging 74.125.225.103 and let me know if that works. That is Google.com but without using DNS.

Have you tried manually setting Google DNS for your adapter/LAN device?

rgd1101 · Oct 17, 2014

ipconfig /all

Do you mean going to the adapter settings and changing it there? If so I have.

ahnilated · Oct 17, 2014

No, he means go to a command prompt window and type ipconfig /all and post the results here.

Yes it connect through a router, but this computer I am on is also connected to that same router but clearly I can connect to the internet.

Go to your network and sharing center, change adapter settings, right click on the proper adapter and select properties, and uncheck ipV6

nick779 · Oct 17, 2014

Your ipconfig looks fine but it looks like your pc is trying to use IPV6 for DNS. Id turn off ipv6 and try adding google (8.8.8.8 or 4.4.4.4 if I remember correctly) as a secondary DNS server

HI

what browser are you using?
Recently I was fixing a PC and found ie completely corrupted and would not go on the Internet
But Firefox had no problems

Ie has a full reset hidden away in control panel Internet Settings
Probably result of malware

Run some extra anti spyware such as super antispyware

After resetting ie it behaved like a ie upgrade had occurred and it reset asked a few questions and started working normally

Regards
Mike Barnes

rgd1101 · Oct 17, 2014

Have you compare the ipconfig/all on the one that work to the one the doesn't?

boosted1g · Oct 17, 2014

Unless they changed it recently, Google's DNS is 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

Sorry, that was me trying to fix the issue. I took it off and put it into the ipv4 but still nothing

It look right, can you try connect directly to the modem?

ilikegirls · Oct 17, 2014

rgd1101 :

Hmmmm, it wont even connect to the router.

I tired 192.168.0.1 on both comps. The broken one just gave me a failed page and the working on brought up a admin password thing.

I tried system restore just to see if that helps, but it failed before it even got to restart

ilikegirls · Oct 17, 2014

I also just checked safe mod and still no internet

rgd1101 · Oct 18, 2014

Did it said limited connection? try another port on the router?
