Connected to internet but cannot browse

FrederiKL

Hey guys, 
Just rebooted my older acer aspire 5738g 32bit. Im not quite into computers, thats why i need your help. The main problem is, that im connected to the internet but can't browse? Its show up as there isn't any connection on the browser? i tried all kinda stuff from the internet like reseting winsock through cmd, deleting my network card, reinstalling and updating it through device manager and such. Whats wrong, is there anything to do here.

 

Thanks....

Are you able to get on the internet with any other services? I've had issues where I can game, skype, teamspeak etc but browser has been a no go.

Just rebooted it, so doesn't really have any other sources to go on the internet. My other computers don't have any issues regarding browsing though.

Do what ItsTheDuckAgain, use your terminal to ping google

I Would say go into internet options,  and check connections. Make sure you don't have a proxy being forced. Could be infection.

 

Try getting into safe mode and see if you can access internet.

 

Lastly,  in CMD with admin privilege,  type netsh winsock reset

Restart again afterwards.

are you using DHCP to get IP & gateway address or statically assigned addresses?

if you can connect to the network and access local network resources but not get to the internet then could be an issue getting to the gateway

open a command box and type:

ipconfig /flushdns

ping www.google.com

and let us know if that worked.

The problem wasn't so complex suddenly... I restarted internet explorer to its standard options... that was the solution. Thanks for your time. Have a good one.
