    What make and model is your wireless card?

    When you configured your wireless router, did you setup the router with encryption, if so was it WEP or WAP and did you enter the WEP or WAP encryption key into your wireless card using the wireless card's utility setup?

    Also did you change any of the default settings on the router?

    You should have change at least the default Admin password.

    If not, someone could have hacked into your router and changed your settings and or steal of your Internet Access.

    Has this laptop been working and connected to the internet before?

    Your other PC, is it connected to the Internet by a network cable or by a wireless connection?



    When you click on your wireless utility, can you see your wireless router and its SSID?

    In internet explorer click on tools then internet options, then click on the connections tab, then select LAN settings. Make sure that you have Automatically detect settings and see if that helps. If that doesn't work then try the command prompt again and type: Ping google.com

    If that works then it's the browser settings not your internet. Keep me posted

    Click on start then run, type in cmd and hit enter.In the command prompt type ipconfig /all After that post what it says here and what browser you are using. I've dealt with similar problems but need a little more information. Thanks.

I believe your problem is described in this article by HP. Read it and then call the HP number listed. If they agree that it's one of the problems in the article, then they will replace the motherboard free.

Gail,

Would love to help, Most computers like this have a wireless switch on them, when this is turned off then of course wirless internet would be difficult. I would instruct you to look for this switch and turn it on. I feel that could be your issue without even looking at it.

Other issues can be that the wireless security got twisted around when this frose so you might want to verify those settings as well,


Thanks for using fixya please leave postive feedback before you go,

I can't get internet connection even though it says my connection strength is "excellent."

The netbook is working fine. The WiFi connection or SPID may require you to login as in it is a protected signal. The "Excellent" means that you are receiving an excellent signal from the router. What you want is internet access which is upstream of that. Try a different SPID or connection.

I have an HP Laptop LAN connection will not connect to internet

The wireless modem you are connecting to is protected with a WEP key. You have to get the WEP key or find another wifi hotspot that is not protected.

You can also get a better antenna for your laptop to see if you can pull in another site.
