Hello
I been having the same problem, I called my internet provider and she told me that the problem is with my IP because its 169... and it should be 192, i dont have warranty on my laptop (sony viao, windows vista). I tried all the steps that you (Dan) put but it still hasn't solved my problem. It says the connection is excellent but I still have an error message on firefox and explorer.
This is the info I got after doing what you wrote:
