Are you on a broadband modem?

I have a home network of five computers hooked to a wireless Linksys router. All five computers connect to the router but only one cannot connect to the internet.

I turned everything off (unplugged both the modem and router) including the laptop and waited about 15-seconds.

In this order and timing I did the following to restore internet connectivity to that laptop:

1) Plug in the modem and establish connection to the ISP's servers. I wait about 15-seconds.

2) Then you turn on your wireless router so it can recognize the modem, again another 15-seconds.

3) Finally I boot up the laptop and reconnect to the router and refresh the wifi connection.

I'm suspecting this is your problem and most probable solution. Good luck.
