Help-Wireless intenet connection problem

Remmer7

Geek Trainee
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...

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
 
Thanks for your respons, here are my results:
