Odd network/internet problem

Glaucus · 2 Feb 2011 at 13:44

On my pc W7 it's connected to the network, but no internet connection. Yet i'm on my phone connected to same network, but by wifi and it's working online. I don't understand how this can happen, any ideas.

Does pinging a domain work? Such as google.com. Or you can try the IP address 74.125.230.115

Thanks, but it's randomly started working again.

It actually had on the newtork icon the yellow error and said no internet connection. IIRC that doesn't happen when it's just a DNS server problem?

Hmm very odd! And you are right, if it was DNS issues there would be no yellow icon.
