Internet Problem: Wireless connected but no connection to internet
- by Josh K
Hey i have a interesting network setup on a laptop here and for some reason the internet isnt working.
I am connected to a secure network via wireless router and taskbar says i am connected and with good signal strength but in my internet browser i cant connect to any websites, the error is: This webpage is not available. (Chrome)
I am using Chrome, but websites dont work on IE either.
Heres a little background on the setup i have. I have a Ethernet connected to the laptop with a static ip, and then i have the wireless setup with DHCP enabled. I am using the ethernet to connect to the network (for remote desktop) but the wireless for internet (to avoid the network firewalls). this set up has worked fine for a few months, but i cant figure out what is going on now.
Might be worth it to note it is a Lenovo Thinkpad and i just uninstalled ThinkVantage Access Connections (as it was giving me ample problems prior to this one, which i consider a step up)
Tried repairing connection as well, let me know if you guys have any ideas please!
EDIT: Solved-Dead Modem in the server room.... Sorry guys didn't have access to that myself
