Mike Reports: · Posted 4 years ago Top Xhi Posts: 6298 This post has been reported. Have you tried disabling and re-enabling the device. (Network and Sharing center -> "Manage network Connections" -> Right click the connection). If that does not work try the computer at another wifi hot spot. If that does not work then I would try a USB wireless adapter. (borrow one to try if you can). If that does not work then I'm afraid the only solution I have found, after spending many hours on such a problem, is to re-load the operating system.

Comments (7) | dns error on Share I've been bothered by this for a little while now. I reboot my laptop, it connects to my router (WLAN), gets its address (as well as the DNS server's address) via DHCP. But the machine cannot resolve any names. Vista reports my LAN is "local only". Diagnostics say the DNS is not working. I used Wireshark, and discovered that when I try to resolve a name, such as when I type "ping www.google.com" at the command prompt, it sends all resolution requests to my WINS server, which of course says it has no address for it, but does not, when that fails, attempt to resolve through the DNS. Wireshark showed no traffic on port 53 at all. I ran NSLookup, which reports my router IP Address as the DNS. IPCONFIG /all shows my wireless connection has my router's IP as the DNS server. But Wireshark shows NO traffic on port 53 going to/from the router. What's up with that? Eventually, many long minutes later, I don't know exactly how long I waited, it starts working... I have no idea why. That is, I had no idea until today. I think I have figured this out. I have a gigabit ethernet port on my laptop as well, which IPConfig correctly reports as "Media disconnected". But, now I notice in Wireshark, when you list all the interfaces, my gigabit ethernet port is listed, with an IP Address defined! I had recently plugged my computer into my router with a cable, to move some l

When I connect to the wireless network, my laptop reports that it is connected with internet access, but there is no browsing capability at all. P2P works, Steam works, but Chrome/Firefox/Steam browser give me the "This webpage is not available" page, telling me that the DNS lookup failed. All the other computers at home are working happily. My settings were to obtain an IP address and DNS server address automatically. nslookup said DNS request timed out. It didn't work with the wireless or the wired internet with an ethernet cable. I set up another network by using my iPhone as a hotspot to make sure it wasn't an issue with all connections, and my computer could browse just fine using the iPhone hotspot. But it didn't work with my home connection. The first thing I tried was to use openDNS's DNS addresses (208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220) with my home connection. It still failed, and nslookup gave the same "DNS request timed out." I reset the modem/router (it's combined, unfortunately) to factory settings and tried directly connecting with an ethernet cable again. It worked for half a second and I opened 2 webpages before it stopped and gave the DNS errors again. I tried the wireless internet and it still didn't work. I ca
