My wirelessinternet was working fine yesterday and now it says its connected but won't work.HELP!?

Question

It is wireless internet with a netgear router. I have tried checking all the plugs and reseting the router. Other computers in my home still connect to the internet but for some reason my main one won't anymore.

Answer 1

Try going to "Run", type "cmd" (without the quotes), type "ipconfig". This should prompt your IP address, something like 123.456.789.042. Now type "ping -t IP", replacing IP with the number you just found (with the dots). This should fix your problem, I don't know why, but I've seen it work a number of times.
