Computer onlyconnects to network not internet

OKay
so we have a home network of 3 compters, to desk top & a laptop
The laptop & a destop (my comp.) are connected through the internet wirelessly.

I at times have a poor connection being upstairs &&& often get my connection would be dropped but i'd restartmy comp or log out &&& back in &&& it'd be back again(btw we run d-link rounter, & my comp is win XP )

After a good 3 yrs of having this network secure & working, one day my comp decided to cut out

i have an idea that it has something to do with DNS & key ports b/c on msn troubleshooter

my computer can still connect through the network to other comps &&& can even still use limewire :S

the tv/internet guy was puzzled as to what to do

I've tried alt of things & have a pretty good knowledge with comps. But i'm kinda stuck here. I've tried uninstalling & reinstalling drivers & such with no such luck

hopefully you guys can help...Thanx

Re: Computer onlyconnects to network not internet

TCP/IP stack repair options for use with Windows XP with SP2/SP3.

Start, Run, CMD to open a command prompt:

In the command prompt window that opens, type type the following commands:

Note: Type only the text in bold for the following commands.

Reset TCP/IP stack to installation defaults, type: netsh int ip reset reset.log

Reset WINSOCK entries to installation defaults, type: netsh winsock reset catalog

Reboot the machine.



After that, connect to the network and post the following results.

Try these simple tests.

Hold the Windows key and press R, then type CMD (COMMAND for W98/WME) to open a command prompt:

In the command prompt window that opens, type type the following commands one at a time, followed by the Enter key:

IPCONFIG /ALL

PING <computer_IP_address>

PING <default_gateway_address>

PING 206.190.60.37

PING yahoo.com


Right click in the command window and choose Select All, then hit Enter to copy the contents to the clipboard.
Paste the results in a message here.

<computer_IP_address> - The IP Address of your computer, obtained from the IPCONFIG command above.

<default_gateway_address> - The IP address of the Default Gateway, obtained from the IPCONFIG command above.


If you are on a machine with no network connection, use a floppy, USB disk, or a CD-RW disk to transfer a text file with the information to allow pasting it here.

Re: Computer onlyconnects to network not internet

First off, disable ICS. Disabling Internet Connection Sharing

Next, do the previous ping tests again and post the results.

Re: Computer onlyconnects to network not internet

Check your Services are Started on all PCs:
  • COM+ Event System (for WZC issues)
  • Computer Browser
  • DHCP Client
  • DNS Client
  • Network Connections
  • Network Location Awareness
  • Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
  • Server
  • TCP/IP Netbios helper
  • Windows Zero Configuration (wireless configurations)
  • Workstation

Note: You can check the services in Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services.

All of these services should be started, and their startup type should be automatic (or perhaps manual).
