Posted October 18, 2016 long story short, I'm living with my grandma and I'm in the basement. I'm basically directly below the router. I'm using wifi to connect to the internet, it says I have full bars and my connection is excellent; but when I try to go on youtube, or facebook, or anything, it just says that I cannot connect. I try to load up minecraft to see if I can even connect to anything, it doesn't let me play online or connect to any servers. Is there any way to fix this without having to directly connect to the router? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also open CMD (Command Prompt) and type "ping google.com" Without "". If you get "could not find host" check your connection.

Posted October 18, 2016 Can you use the internet at all? As-in: did you post this message using that same computer? If so, you have some strange problems. Check for proxy settings in your pc, check if you have set up a VPN. Try using a cable, to check if that fixes the problem (I doubt it). Does your computer have some kind of filters, like p0rn filters, which is set to agressive. Disable firewall, disable virus scanner, check if all protocols for your network are set propperly. Are you connected to the propper network. Did you have to get acces to that modem. Has the modem changed configuration parts, like don't allow connections from 192.168.X.X...

I posted this message using the computer I'm trying to get the internet to connect to, but this is basically the only site I can connect to.

That didn't work either I honestly don't know what's going on. Spotify and games don't work, google and youtube don't load. LTT loads perfectly fine.
