No Connection to Internet

cfram123 · 06-09-2009, 02:04 PM

So, I got a HP Pavilion zv5000, formatted it and reinstalled all the drivers and whatnot. Basically, all the fun stuff lol, but when I try to get on the internet, it says there is no connection, but my icon in my toolbar tray shows that I have a connection. Is there something I'm missing?

Are you connecting via wire or wireless? Any devices with yellow or red marks in Device Manager?

Hello,

How are you connecting to internet wired or wireless?

Check Device Manager for any Drivers not installed correctly.

What anti-virus/ Firewall are you using. Try turning it off to check connection.

Click Start > Run > type ipconfig /all

Post the details.
