You're posting from some computer with the connection, aren't you?

[stipower]

im on my brothers laptop, we have 4 other computers they all have no problems going on the internet just mine! I put in the "product recovery cd" that came with my laptop and returned it to default settings BUT i still dont get a connection!

[Broni]

Is your computer laptop, or desktop?
Wireless, or wired connection?

[stipower]

Turn off computer. Disconnect router, and modem from power source for 30 seconds.
Power them back on.
Restart computer.

If that doesn't work, bypass router, and connect computer straight to the modem.

If that doesn't work...
Go Start>Run (Start search in Vista), type in:
cmd
Click OK (in Vista, while holding CTRL, and SHIFT, press Enter).

In Command Prompt window, type in following commands, and hit Enter after each one:
ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /registerdns
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew

Restart computer.

If that doesn't work...
Go Start>Run (Start search in Vista), type in:
cmd
Click OK (in Vista, while holding CTRL, and SHIFT, press Enter).

At Command Prompt, type in:
netsh int ip reset reset.log
Hit Enter.
Type in:
netsh winsock reset catalog
Hit Enter.

Restart computer.


If that doesn't work...
Download, install, and run WinSockFix: http://www.softpedia...inSockFix.shtml
Restart computer, and check again.

i tried all of the above nothing worked! this is so frustrating

[Broni]

How did you get WinSockFix, since you can't connect?

[stipower]

i took a usb key, should i do that hijacklog thing now?

[stipower]

HEY BRONI!!! I did all those commands again and i missed one! Im a goof haha

At Command Prompt, type in:
netsh int ip reset reset.log
Hit Enter.
Type in:
netsh winsock reset catalog
Hit Enter.

that one AND NOW IT WORKS!!! omg i really dont know how to thank u!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Broni]

Nice job!

Same thing here... i can only open secured sites, but i don't dare enter my info incase of malware being the cause. I have 2 pc's 1 running xp, and 1 running vista.... only the one that has xp is experices issues. I've changed ethernet cables at first, but it is obviously in the computer itself. are we talking dos command prompt, or in run menu( xp media edition)?
