I can open a cmd window and ping Yahoo by name and IP address in normal mode, but cannot display a broswer page (IE8 or Chrome) I have scanned in safe mode with the free version of AVG and Malwarebyte (both virus database updated) Turned windows firewall off and still cannot get internet in normal mode. CCleaner registry scan

    Turns out the culprit was Norton blocking internet access after my client didn't get the pay version. He used the add/remove programs to uninstall Norton. I found out that you MUST use the official Norton uninstaller to uninstall Norton. I did this and wam! bam! Internet.. thanks everyone for your suggestions

With vista I had the same problem, but when I enabled network fileshareing and set up some network drives it started to answer on ping requests, so it should be one of the networking protocols to enable.

Why not use the firewall that comes with Vista. I've tried others and with Vista it seems far easier to use the original. Whay can't you change anything?

Wont connect to the internet even though it has an LAN ip and the router recognizes it.
If you can see the router recognize it, would that be a wireless router and you can see it in the connected devices list? or just that the light is on?

Let's start at the beginning. Let's check what ip address you have now. open up a command prompt (Start->Run->cmd then Enter) type "ipconfig". Note these numbers.

1.) Go into Network Connections (Control Panel) 2.) Go into the properties for the adapter you would like to connect with. 3.) Find the TCP/IP for that adapter and click the properties button. 4.) Both "Obtain an IP address automatically" & "Optain DNS server address automatically" 5.) Close those windows and open up a command prompt (Start->Run->cmd then Enter) 6.) type "ipconfig" and note the numbers. Only bad number would start with "169.xx.xx.xx" which means no ip address was distributed. Type "ping yahoo.com" if you get 4 replies then you have a solid internet connection.

hope this help, - Best Regards, -md

Cant connect to the internet.
Click on Start and type CMD. Open CMD and type ipconfig. Check out the IP address V4 for the Local area ethernet adapter or wireless area adpater depending on wireless or wired connection. Any ip address other than of the class 169.254.x.x shoud be considered good. If you have an IP address is any other number other than the above you have a good IP address. to test the internet connectivity type PING www.google.com. If the results are Packets sent 4 Recieved 4 Lost 0 then the issue could be due to Internet Explorer bing corrupt or a firewall blocking the internet access. Power off the computer. Power on the system and as soon as you see the Dell logo please tap the F8 button 3 - 4 times. You'll get to teh Advanced Windows boot option screen. Select safe mode with networking and see if the internet works in the safe mode. If yes then it could be the firewall. Uninstall you antivirus and check.

Wireless Internet
I am guessing you are connecting that netgear card wirelessly? Does it get an IP address? Have you tried pinging the router from the laptop once the connection has been made? Try this. Go to the start menu, click the run button and in there type cmd and press enter. Once the black command prompt is open try ping yahoo.com See if that comes up with anything. Also try typing ipconfig and press enter. It will show 3 things.
IP address
subnet
gateway.

The gateway should be your 2wire modem.
Try ping gateway ip and see if that works.

Let me know! thank you.
