Wireless Network Connection Suddenly Gone

I have the following setup:

DLink DSL 504+ router/modem
Belkin 802.11g wireless netowk card


I can access the admin console of the router and the connected message appears to confirm that I can connect to my ISP.

However, when i try and connect to google it cannot find the page and when I ping from the desktop to the google ip address it cannot find a path. When I ping the google ip address from the router though, it is fine.

All firewalls are off. The desktop can ping the router and see the admin console so it seems that the wireless network card is working ok.

Does anyone have any idea whats going wrong?? Please help!

are you using DHCP from the router and is it assigning a gateway?

 

That sounds incredibly similar to my question.. I have no idea whats going on.. but does if you jsut connect the LAN cable from your ISP to your computer does that work? Just a thought~

 

I would use more direct functional methods to find out what’s works.

1. If you have a Wired computer on the Router and it can use the Internet normally then it is a problem with Wireless Computer.

2. If the Wireless can transfer and exchange information with the desktop then the Wireless aspects of the connection works OK.

3. If both 1 and 2 are OK (i.e. One computer has solid Internet and the Wireless works OK on the LAN), then the problem is probably related to the Internet software on you laptop and has nothing to do with the Wireless per-se.

Might be Internet Infestation related.

Otherwise you probably think that your wireless works but it does not or it is not a stable connection.
