Title: Internet Problem
Post by: p2 on August 12, 2012, 01:38:04 pm
It's me again!  :P
Only a few days after my virus problem (I posted about it) I now have the next problem: my laptop!
The internet isn't working anymore! (not through wifi nor through lan!)  D:


OS:   Win7


When I try to open a website, It tells me that there's no connection to the internet!
(tried it out with: Firefox, InternetExplorer, both in InPrivate-Mode and in Normal-Mode)

The strange thing is, that it tells me it's connected to the internet!

Also, InternetExplorer tells me, tha my internet settings for IE are veeery unsecure!
But I haven't changed that and it never told me that before! ???
I haven't had any problems when I used the laptop last friday, when I was at Sorunome's hose Nor when I used it jesterday!
since that, it hasn't been used!  O.O



I can be sure that the laptop is really connected to the internet, because when I tried pout Ping in CMD.exe, it was successful! ???


Any ideas how to fix that?
(I dont know what those guys will think when I have to bring it away to repair!! They gave me my Computer back only 2 days ago! That wpould be very embarrasing)  :-[

Maybe your router blocks out your computer?

I suspect your DNS settings.

Make sure the clock is correct. Some computers and routers can behave strange when the clock is wrong, especially when the year is wrong.

Why should it block the laptop from one day to another???

Reminds me of the DNS-changer-virus!
How to get known what's wrong with it and how to fix it?

Only 12sec difference from the other computer!






New strange facts:

On skype, I still see, who is online and who isn't!
Only sorunome, who was on "away" before he went offline, isn't shown correctly!
is online mode always changes between "away" and "offline"
I can even click on "videocall" which is only possible of the other guy is online!
but on the other computer I saw that he was offline all the time!


When he went online again,he called me in skype!
but it was also telling me on the laptop that he's calling me!
I was even able to talk to him, using the laptop!! O.o


after I quit the call, everything was as strange as before again! :/
