Hello to all, OK basically I am having wireless internet connection problems. I am using a Belkin 54g, the connection is found and connects, but web pages do not display. It is not the router itself as this also happens when I tried a different one. Connecting through a modem works perfectly fine. The DHCP has been checked and is on, I have reset the router settings and it makes no difference. I then thought it may be a DNS problem, I have flushed it using command prompt and reset it etc and has still done nothing. I am completely stumped. Command prompt returns this when pinging... Welcome to Facebook! | Facebook C:\Documents and Settings\Remmer>ping Welcome to Facebook! | Facebook Ping request could not find host Welcome to Facebook! | Facebook. Please check the name and try again. and the IP address: :\Documents and Settings\Remmer>ping 69.63.184.28 Reply from 192.***.*.*: Destination net unreachable Reply from 192.***.*.*: Destination net unreachable Reply from 192.***.*.*: Destination net unreachable Reply from 192.***.*.*: Destination net unreachable Ping statistics for 69.63.184.28: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss), Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms I have posted this elsewhere and only got the response: "your computer or laptop is not getting assigned proper ip address" which is all well and good, but how do i fix this? and why is it happening? Networking isn't really my strong area, but I work well with computers and can follow instructions. Thanks in advance
Welcome to HWF Go to command prompt and enter the command ipconfig /all. And then please post the response here. Also, (if possible) open your router's control panel and go to the DNS settings. Enter the following DNS servers: 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220
