Windows 7 Starter Netbook / Connected To Internet But Cannot Access Webpages
Jun 22, 2012
I have a Windows XP Laptop and an Windows 7 Starter Netbook. I have recently changed internet provider, returned the previous (Netgear) router and configured a new (D Link) router. Prior to the change of internet provider, both laptops could connect wirelessly without issues.After installing the new router provided by new internet provider, my Windows XP laptop can connect to the internet wirelessly without problems, the signal is strong and the speeds decent. My Windows 7 Netbook can connect to the network and to the internet, however, the speed on it is so low that pages do not load at all. Whilst it remains connected (the connection does not drop), it does not display web pages. Occasionally it displays a page or two, and it seems the problem is fixed, but this lasts no longer than a few minutes, after which it starts displaying "white" pages again. When the connection to the router is wired, the problem disappears and I can access the internet and the pages load well, so the problems is strictly a Wi Fi connectivity issue.
The Windows 7 Starter Netbook that has this problem at home, connects to every single other network I have had the chance to test it on (at work, at internet cafes, at my parents, at my sisters) and it also used to work flawlessly with my home network before I changed internet provider. On all other networks, it works really well.The new (D Link) router seems to work, otherwise my Windows XP laptop would also be having problems... but it doesn't.So both the new (D Link) router and my Windows 7 Starter Netbook work well separately. They just don't work together!I have tried a number of things: restarting the Netbook, restarting the router, re-installing Windows 7 Starter completely, disabling the network adapter and re-enabling it, updating the network driver, unprotecting the network completely, disabling Windows Firewall, disabling antivirus,changing the channels on the router, placing quartz crystals next to both devices and chanting. Below, I am pasting IP Config files showing the details of the settings in both devices (the one that works and the one that doesn't). As far as settings on the router is concerned, I have checked that they are the basic default ones that technical support are recommending.
IP Config of Windows XP Laptop that WORKS WELL:

I bought my laptop 4 weeks ago. It has Windows 8 on it. It worked great until this week. At first, Google Chrome quit working. Then IE quit. I connect wirelessly. It says it is strong, but no Internet access. I do have connectivity on my phone to that router.

I'm running a HP Mini 110 1191eo laptop with Windows 7 Starter. Every time I open up a browser, EI or Firefox, it says that it cannot display the webpage etc. The weird thing is however that the connection bar is showing full connection to the wireless internet! The connection should be up and running, but I can't get anything on any browser.I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers for the network cards, both wireless and ethernet, but no luck. I don't what to do, as I'm no expert on these computer matters.Oh yeah, another weird thing: this laptop offers some kind of program before Windows loads, where you can perform basic stuff like connect to the internet, check your mail etc. Here I can connect via the wireless network! But not in Windows when I load it up.

I just recently upgraded my computer to Vista from XP. Since then my computer connects to the internet and runs applications such as Star Trek Online and Skype ok but it won't load pages in any internet browsers.

Suddenly, one of my laptops is unable to access the internet via my apartment complex's community wifi. It will connect to the network, but times out when trying to access any webpages. All other devices are able to connect to the network and access the internet with no issue. This network is unsecured, so no password is required to access.
ISP: Comcast
Router: Unknown
Anti-Virus/Firewall Software on PC: Avast, Windows Firewall
Here's my ipconfig/all info:

I've been having this problem for around two years on my current laptop, but today it finally got so frustrating I had to ask about it. I've tried and tried to search for others with a similar problem, but have never found a good solution. When my computer turns on and connects to an internet source (LAN or wifi), it will work fine indefinitely. However, if I join a different LAN or wireless network later, such as when I go from home to school, it will connect to the new network, but after a few minutes, I will be unable to load any web pages (Connection timed out).
Skype and email still work fine, and the only browser I use is firefox, so this may be a firefox-specific issue. If I reset the network adapter being used, then I will be able to load websites again, but after 2-30 minutes, I will run into the same issue and have to reset the adapter again. Joining a different network does not resolve the problem. Restarting firefox does not resolve the problem. Clearing the firefox cache is a temporary solution only, similar to resetting the network adapter. Restarting the computer entirely will result in no connection problems, until I have to change networks again.

My Internet is connected as I can load pages through my iPhone on my wireless signal BUT on my laptop the only page that will load is my UniSA home page and my Uni email - nothing else will load - I have tried Mozilla, IE & Safari and get the same response with all of them. Don't know if I have accidentally done something or what?

Applications such as skype, teamviewer, etc, are all working fine, however, when I try to load certain webpages, such as Facebook and forum boards, they don't load, just stay white screen.
Youtube, google, both load, I imagine this is because they're both on the Google servers, apart from any Google related sites, I can't find any that will load for me.
I think this is a problem wth my DNS addresses, I've tried a range of solutions, clearing my DNS, changing my IPv4 address, restarting the router, PC, but I can't seem to find a fix.
Running on windows 7 Home premium
NOTE: I had the Metropolitan police virus yesterday, I did a system restore to remove it, my internet worked fine after, it's only since I've moved from the router at my other house, to the one here that I'm having problems.

I tried my entire afternoon trying to figure this out but to no avail. Fortunately, I found this place out of my desperation for a solution. My netbook works very well in my home network but when I brought it to my workplace, I was unable to connect to the internet eventhough I could connect to the wireless network. Other computers and laptops were able to connect and use the internet well using the same router. I tried manually configuring my IP and default gateway based on what I read but nothing worked.

this is crazy - when i came back from out of town i tried to see if my problem still existed. it did - the win 7 laptop still could not "see" the win xp computers on the home network but all of the xp computers could see the win 7 laptop. just before sending this reply, i tried it "one more time". wa-lah, the laptop can see the other computers. this happened once before, it was seeing them, i had to leave the system and come back the next day - when i came back, the problem had returned. i did notice when i came back from out of town, my power had gone off and came back on- but this was b4 i checked it only to find the problem was still there, as just mentioned, i tried it just b4 writing this reply and the problem was no longer there. i just rebooted the laptop and as we speak, i can see all 3 of the xp computers from the win 7 laptop. i really can't make any sense out of what's going on but am beginning to think its in the modem.

I have a couple of computers in my house that work fine with my wireless router, but all of a sudden, my roommate's computer, a Dell Inspiron with Windows 7, is connection to the wireless network but has "no internet access." I've rebooted th.e modem and router, to no avail. I've also tried a number of suggestions online, but without success. My friend's computer has McAfee, with which I'm unfamiliar. The only real difference I cn see between our computers is that she has a different wireless card.

Unable to access webpages and sometimes internet.I will be on my laptop which is the main computer I use (I usually use it wirelessly although I'm having the same problem now, even when I'm hardwired) and suddenly I can't access some or all websites. This isn't just normal dropping for a few seconds at a time, this can last for hours sometimes. Meanwhile, the desktop computer which is directly connected, doesn't have any problems at all.

I have three computers (all hp): a netbook running 32-bit Windows 7 starter, a laptop running 64-bit windows 7 premium and a desktop recently upgraded to 64-bit windows 7 premium. The desktop was previously running vista, and the network worked fine under vista.The computers can ping one another by IP address.

I have recently bought a Asus Eee PC with Windows 7 starter.It will connect ok to public Wifi (i.e. at the Qantas lounge) but will not connect to my home Wifi network - Netcomm N150 Router. The two other computer at home (running full versions of Windows 7) work fine over this network.When I look at the Station list in the Router's interface the MAC address for the new laptop appears but it has no IP address. [code] Have tried the obvious things like power cycling.

I've got a netbook (Acer Aspire One) with XP SP3 on it. It connects to my wireless network (so it says), but it won't get onto the internet. I can ping 127.0.0.1, but it won't ping my router. When I do ipconfig /release > ipconfig /flushdns > ipconfig /renew, it hangs up on the renew portion telling me that the DHCP server timed out. The exact error message is:"An error occurred while renewing interface Wireless Network Connection 2 : unable to contact your DHCP server. Request has timed out.No operation can be performed on Local Area Connection while it has its media disconnected"I've checked the TCP/IP settings, it's set to automatically obtain and IP address and DNS servers. I've checked the DHCP service and that's running. The internet works when it's wired. I've used the "repair" function when right-clicking the wireless icon and it tells me it can't renew my IP address. I made an ipconfig /all when it was connected and this is what it came up with:
Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : Jencomputer
Primary Dns Suffix . . . . . . . :
Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Unknown
IP Routing Enabled. . . . . . . . : No

So I recently came down to my parents place for a holiday and ever since I started using the internet here many websites are not loading (firefox, ie and google chrome alike) they usually show an error /problem loading page message. All webpages open fine on the wireless router back at my place.
Also, all the webpages seem to load fine on other PC's in the house. I have scanned using kaspersky twice, there were no threats. And I tried using Hotspot Shield - and all the websites load only when hotspot shield is on.

When I tell the netbook to print it does not display anything, just doesn't connect to printer.

I was wondering if internet connection sharing was made impossible by Microsoft on netbooks even after an Anytime Upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. This is because whenever I create an Ad-Hoc network on my netbook I am unable to turn on Internet Connection Sharing. Though my friend with a Toshiba notebook running Home Premium is able to turn on Internet Connection Sharing.
