Wireless Connectios Enabled, yet no MSN or browser available.

Feniks14 · 08-27-2008, 08:05 PM

Okay I do ensure you I've googled my problem a couple of times before I headed out to these forums, hoping that this will be the last thing I try and hopefully getting an answer.

So the title basically says it all. My wireless connection is enabled I have a "Good" connection. But I can't get through on my browser and my MSN states I have a DNS problem. I can't say I've throughly tried things I've read elsewhere since none of the threads I found specifically related to my problem.

I am abled to connect through my LAN connection though.

Can anyone help me? I've read that I could try to reboot my router, but I'm not sure how to do that, since I'm using a laptop. Hehe. Thanks in the advantage!

To reboot( flush) the router remove the power lead from the rear. Leave for 1 to 2 minutes . Replug.
Your prob sounds like the wep( or whatever your using) is not correct.

yeah it sounds as though your wireless security options are not configured the same on your laptop and the router. What brand router do you have?
