I'm guessing that you have a cable modem a dlink router with wifi and a computer, right? If you connect the cable modem to the computer you have internet. You shouild also have wfi but the wifi will not give you internet because it is disconnected from the modem. The Dlink has to be connected to the modem but it will also need to be configured. To *** that you will need help from your cable company. The connections should be. Modem connected to the outside world. Dlink connected to the Modem. Computer connected to the Dlink by either wifi or Ethernet.
Does your WiFi work on the laptop work in another place... Starbucks for example? If so, then there is a software security issue with the router, you will need to call the ISP for adjust the settings. If you PC doesn't work with wifi at Starbucks then you have a software issue with your laptop. Go to MY Computer, Hardware/Devices and look for any yellow marks. There will probably be one where the wifi is located. (Expand all the devices by clicking on the plus "+ signs. Find the wifi modem, there are many mfrs; Broadcom and Atheros are two ones. Go into the submenus and driver update too and write everything down you find. The most important things are the description, model number, software version and version date. Navigate to the hardware mfrs site and download and install the newest drivers for the wifi modem. Re-boot and try again to establish a connection.
On XP ? Vista ? or Win 7? Are you using LAN Cable ,Wifi or USB modem? First of all make sure all driver installed correctly. Secondly Check your anti virus database otherwise disable it first
did you mean your laptop wifi connection driver ? if it is then try reinstall your laptop os.it automatically solve your problem. if it was not your built in wifi connection then download your modem driver from there website. hopefully it will solved.
