Resolved my issue!! Wednesday, September 19, PM. I have no idea why this worked, but it did. I was trying to access internet on my Dell E Win 7 via a Netgear repeater. I could connect to the repeater, but it said no internet access, while at the same time my other computer Mac could access the internet via that same repeater.
Anyway, I restarted holding F8, and now it works just fine. Would love to know why this worked Sunday, October 28, AM. I may have found another mechanism that has these same symptoms. I had run thru all the prescribed fixes with no joy. I was trying yet another thing last night and came across a message in a log that my version of Intel ProSet Wireless was not compatible with the version of the driver I was using.
Apparently the utility that updated my drivers did not also update ProSet. I suspect that windows may use some API delivered in Proset as part of their interface to the wireless function.
I installed an update that included both the driver and the Intel ProSet Wireless utility and my problem resolved itself. Wednesday, October 31, AM. My problem is similar to that of the OP. I have a system with 2 boot drives, Windows 7 Pro and Windows 7 Ultima, both 64 bit.
Just over a week ago, I had to disconnect my PC because of a heavy tropical thunderstorm. After maybe 40 minutes things were safe enough, so I reconnected and started the PC. I had no network connection. Troubleshooting insisted that the network-card was unplugged, while it was not. After having tried everything I could think off, I rebooted from my 2nd drive with Win 7 Pro. Everything was fine with that system, so it was not a problem with the on-board Atheros L1 ethernet-card.
Friday, November 9, PM. One in our family has had Windows 7 for a few years now, and has shared via our setup with nary a problem. Two weeks ago, she had no internet, while we enjoyed our normal connections. We verified that the new Kaspersky AV in place of the Norton, at our behest she had put in her desktop was updated and such,but now there seems to be this inexplicable problem, similar to what is described in this forum.
We tried everything here to no avail. Then it hit us Afterwards, we created a new system restore point, backed up the registry and restarted. To date she is still enjoying internet with my Netgear usb, so we figured it was merely a recent update that misidentified whatever her original usb wireless adapter was that is , djp' s mention of the KB updates listed And now I have an XP that will need a another adapter, but there's definite peace in my house Let it be known, while we don't mind visiting family, the incessant howling of 'NO Internet' was resounding way too much for my taste.
I hope! Bottom line, follow the steps that have been pointed out in posts previous to this one Please note the contributors mentioned below and see their respective posts above.
This is merely another solve for something that presented itself. But it just wasn't showing the IE any signs that it was connected, and the 'troubleshooter' found no way to solve Way too many hours of hell on this problem, but here's hoping one of these will help. Wednesday, November 21, AM. Brano, I believe your suggestion solved MY problem.
Wednesday, November 21, PM. Either method. Edited by demmith2 Sunday, December 23, PM. Sunday, December 23, PM. Re: Faiyyu This one did not work for me. Re: Nomar I went to the Dell site. Edited by demmith2 Monday, December 24, AM. Monday, December 24, AM.
Seems that this is a recurring issue because as I sit here and enter this post it is December 23, and some of these posts originated back in the summer. Yea, how 'bout an apology McAfee and maybe a credit?! I don't have any McAfee software's on my system thus don't know if it is relevant for me. Never the less tried doing it but couldn't, because I couldn't connect to the internet.
Also in safe mode it want connect. Any1 can help? Saturday, March 9, PM. One thing though, when you are setting up your virtual machine make sure to configure your hardware and set the network connection to bridged And if somebody know how to set the drivers capabilities please post back.
Thursday, March 28, PM. I couldn't connect either. Also, I had previously uninstalled McAfee, and that does not solve the problem. Also tried installing MVT without an internet connection and that did not work. In case the problem was a virus, I ran Hitman Pro , my go to cleaner.
I forgot that it does not work offline, however it found the connectivity problem, a Winsock error, and fixed it.
After a reboot, all is well. I am sure there are better ways to fix this, but this worked for me. Sunday, May 26, AM. Edited by pbhmpls Saturday, June 15, PM. Saturday, June 15, PM. Our issue was fixed by uninstalling IE 10 and rebooting. Who-da thunk it? Tuesday, July 2, PM. Thank you so much. I know this is an old post but thanks to you my internet is up and running. Thursday, July 11, PM. Thanks, your solution was the only clear and workable one that I spent hours looking for!
Saved me from getting into deep trouble with someone lol! Sunday, August 4, PM. Friday, September 27, AM. Is Windows 8 riddled with the same problem? If not, I might consider upgrading. Tuesday, October 1, PM. Wednesday, October 9, AM. HI Please follow the below steps to resolve the issue, the problem due to IP conflict.
Monday, October 21, AM. I have the same problems after windows update. Did you find any answers?! Saturday, November 16, PM.
Sunday, November 17, AM. I had this same problem and found the cause was in my router. Windows showed he wireless connection as connected, which I suppose it was, but it could not get an IP address.
The fix was to extend the range of the DHCP addresses in the router's configuration. Sunday, January 5, PM. Sunday, February 16, PM. Thank you, I used method 1 and it fix it.
