Good evening!
I've been having issues with my laptop the last few weeks and have been trying everything I can think of to fix it. My laptop will connect to my home network but with no internet access wirelessly. Through my experiments I've found that I can connect just fine to other wireless networks and use the internet as well as I can connect via wire to my home network with no troubles.
I'm not an expert on wireless connections but I've been googling everything I can find with this type of problem to no avail. Here are the major things I have tried:
- At first I thought it was a virus and purchased Kaspersky Anti-virus
- Ran a system restore to before the issue began
- Ran Kaspersky from safe mode
- Deleted my home network from my saved networks (just in the control panel, I imagine there is a deeper more useful way)
- Reset both laptop and router
- Logged into the router, nothing looking out of the ordinary but I don't know what to look for
My setup is as follows:
Samsung NP QX411
Modem: Arris DG860
I could not find the Motherboard/Power Supply models but they are the standard for this model laptop
Operating Windows 7
Onboard wireless: Intel Centrino Wireless N 6150, driver 14.0.2.2
ISP: Time Warner Cable
Wireless with a WPA2-PSK security
Rocking 2-6 devices connected at a time, but it doesn't seem to affect the problem
Does anyone have some advice?
Thank you
