I have another laptop which I bought in Thailand and since being back in the UK with it, I havent been able to get online. Its a Compaq Presario CQ45 laptop.

My other laptop and desktop detect the BT homehub wireless router and they are accessing the internet fine. However, although the compaq is showing a perfect wireless signal, everytime I try to open IE, it says page cannot be found. Ive tried right clicking the wireless and selecting repair as well as trying to set LAN settings to suto detect. I have also disabled the firewall but none of these actions make any difference.

Can anyone help me? It would be greatly appreciated.
