    Your computer appears to be correctly configured, but the device or resource (primary DNS server) is not responding.

    :cry

    Hi and Welcome to the forums here at Majorgeeks.

    Could you also tell us your Windows version and Service Pack and what Browser you are using?

    What router make and model as wellas what ISP you are using?

    I would be tempted to reset your router and check its date and time, you could also try a flush of the local DNS cache on your PC, by following the below

    If none Vista or XP just click Start > Run and type CMD to bring up a command prompt and type ipconfig /flushdns and hit enter

    If on Vista or Win7 then click Start and type CMD in the Start Search box and when CMD shows right click it and choose Run as Administrator then type ipconfig /flushdns and hit enter

    May need to do that command a few times, and then reboot and test.

    Yes perfect info and have you tried the ipconfig /flushdns direction and see if that helps, also boot into safe mode F8 at boot and choose safe mode with networking and see if that helps.

    If you use IE or another browser do you get a page and not via Google Chrome.

    I have tried the ways above, none of them work. When i computer directly connect to the cable it is perfectly find but if i want to use my wireless to connect to the router i can't access to the internet.

    Did you figure your problem out? An easy work-around would be to enter a public DNS server into your connection's settings manually and see if that helps. Google's 8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4 have been working and testing at decent speed lately.

    Go into Command prompt and type "ipconfig -all" and look for DNS Servers. What do your DNS Servers say and what is your default gateway?
