So, the issue was that I couldn't connect to any web page from any browser. Not only that, but I can't download anything using any other program (like Windows Updater.)
I've tried everything I could think of, including reinstalling drivers and changing the DNS server address to google's public DNS.
By all accounts, I should be able to connect. I can ping any page I want and get lightning fast responses, my wireless adapter sees and connects to the wireless modem without a hitch, all of my status reports say I'm connected, even Window's Troubleshooter has no issues connecting. It's just the browsers.
What I've tried:
Reinstalling drivers
Resetting IE
Changing DNS
It shouldn't be a software issue since this is a clean install of the OS, and the drivers are completely up to date to the best of my knowledge.
Specs:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit
Using IE, since I can't install any other browser
Using an Edimax EW-7811Un Wireless Adapter
I know I asked a similar question before and chose an answer, changing the DNS server worked for a second but as soon as I tried downloading another browser with this newfound connection, everything went to crap.
Does anyone have any other suggestions? I'd love the help. Even if it doesn't work, it'll have results that might help me get closer to the solution.
