Pasted below is a subset of the entire email, with the relevant portion for those of us who can only access the internet after -rebooting into 'Safe Mode with Networking':. Only problem is, that the speed is much less than it used to be with the Atheros card.
I have updated the driver for Atheros and tried most other suggestions that I read in this thread, to no avail. Still I have run extra online scans F-Secure, Panda but found nothing worse than adware which my Superantispyware would probably also have found.
In device manager are now 3 Network adapters: 1. Atheros, 2. I basically followed your steps, unticked the IPv6 box, disabled my USB wireless adapter, re-enabled it back, and voila, working internet! I am using Windows 7 and this happened a couple times in the past whereas the other computers in my house one Win7, one Ubuntu didn't exhibit any issue. I'm bookmarking this page for future reference thanks goodness for the internet and how it archives pages almost forever for people to use in the future.
Seriously, I've scoured other forums but this thread is the best. I went to the Dell site. It solved my problem. That's the issue - they Windows 7 and McAfee were fighting each other in some form or another.
I have this problem 2. I read it all and done everything that was mentioned. Also tried doing the solution about McAfee. OMG I have had this problem for over a month and I could not make any sense of it considering that my Atheros ethernet card would network connect but not connect to internet.
I would've thought the card was faulty or some other freak idea, but I was using it prevviously on ICS and it worked perfectly fine, as long as it wasnt plugged into my router and the internet was coming from a shared connection.. Now honestly that blew my mind and i have had a posting up on this topic for a while So i could not find any compatible driver software for the card, and i did notice that the hardware capabilities are not set and is the exact reason why the card does not work in windows 7 or 8.
So if anyone knows how to program the driver so the card does have some capabilities then it might work, but i do not know how to do that.. So now the really frustrating, but solvable, part is You can run a virtual system and boot Windows XP while still in the windows 7 environment which has not network or internet connection , and be able to connect to internet!!
I just tried it and it works!! Those of you who dont know One thing though, when you are setting up your virtual machine make sure to configure your hardware and set the network connection to bridged. Same problem after replacing the mother board on my computer.
Switching the LAN cable from one port to a different port did the trick. My piece of junk computer has been having the same problem, but the worst part is it is intermittent, without me making any changes.
So how on earth am I supposed to troubleshoot when none of the known fixes work, and the problem arbitrarily arises and disappears as it pleases? Then I discovered that my computer is connected to the internet i. I could perform Microsoft and virus definition updates but all my browsers could not go online e. Once I discovered that, I ran the built-in diagnostic test and it was reported that there was problem with the DNS failing to respond. Since then, I couldn't replicate that error message even by running the same test.
Booting into Win7 in safe mode also does not make any difference - still cannot connect either to the internet or local routers. Furthermore, IE10 fails to launch runs then just disappears quietly , even in its own safe-mode! I'm also unable to turn on 2 services in Avast.
What is wrong with the system and what can I do to resolve the above basically to get online to check my emails, etc?
Apparently, I followed someone's advice to delete and restore a few registry entries related to TCPIP and Winsock and that solved my problem. Finally, the answer I hoped someone would post. Basically, found two answers but resetting Winsock seems to be the best. The other was to disable the Bonjour service but I'm sticking with the Winsock reset.
This is a Window issue. I have this problem on every other PC in house. With different hardware configuration different windows versions. This is just another stupid Microsoft thing. If you cannot positively detect that the network is connect to the internet, then just don't display anything and confuse simple users.
If you run the troubleshooter, he will tell you that there is no problem, you are connected to the internet, but it does not update the stupid icon. Typical Microsoft, they will write suggestions on how to fix it, but they don't bother to just update the software to fix the problem for good. And I am sure this takes a programmer 10 minutes and saves system administrators globally thousands of hours of calming down their users.
This should have become apparent when you ping www. I too have this problem. I can ping from the command line but unable to access the internet from any browser. I had a virus snapdo which I hope has been eliminated using Malwarebytes and other virus cleaners. I WONDER IF many of the above proposals as solutions have worked simply because the action taken has disabled and then re-enabled the network adapter without this being apparent.
I have an intermittent but annoying problem of lack of internet connection despite good LAN connection on startup of Win 7 across several different computers all Dell, some desktop, some laptop and versions of Win 7 and, in fact, using two different LANs on two different ISPs on opposite sides of the world.
It even happens that one computer will have the problem and another not on the same LAN. Equivalent situation never occurs on a machine running XP. It's just a nuisance which is why I came looking on this site for a "proper" fix.
I connect to a VPN often. Just changed it to "obtain automatically This resolved it. A USB wireless adapter has been installed along with its driver. With the wired one disconnected, attempts to connect the wireless adapter have resulted in it being "connected" but without internet access. Both gave the same results. It also was not getting a DNS server address, so I set that up for 8. For some reason, I decided to reconnect the wired connection.
This came online and was "connected" and had internet access. Here is the really strange thing: once the wireless connection showed it had internet access, I unplugged the wired connection again and the wireless STAYED intact, continuing to have internet access. I could confirm that the connection was through the wireless connection by doing a speed test. The modem that the wired connection was using was a substantially slower service less than 5 mpbs compared to nearly 30 mbps.
I spent the last two days fighting this on a users computer and even went as far as wiping the machine back to factory. I finally realized that no matter what I was always getting the same IP address. I had to hunt for it on one of our many DHCP servers but once I found the record I deleted it and now my problem is solved. Office Office Exchange Server. Not an IT pro? Sign in.

Hi, You may try to test if this issue persists in Safe Mode with Networking. This can be beneficial to other community members reading the thread. Monday, November 28, AM. Monday, November 28, PM. I have the same problem. Reinstalling windows or quickrestore does not solve the problem. Most things I tried didn't work. I think it may have come back on it's own.
What I thought did work temporarily was disabling network adapter and reenabling it. We'll see how it goes. Why it happens? I don't know. Why us? Edited by ill macker Sunday, December 4, AM.

Proposed as answer by gmakovicka Monday, October 29, PM. Sunday, December 4, PM. Proposed as answer by ShopSpeedHouse. None of the solutions proposed here or anywhere else that I could find worked. The most ridiculously easy solution was to unplug the LAN cable from Port 1 and re-insert into Port 2 with the computer on.
Within 10 seconds we had a working internet connection. Monday, December 12, PM. Thursday, December 15, AM. Wednesday, March 14, PM. Good Evening!
I also started using my computer this evening and was frustrated. It showed that all connections were good, but could not connect to the internet. I was able to fix this by rolling back the Windows update that was installed last night.
I have not identified which of the 6 updates caused the problems but have listed the numbers below. Tuesday, March 20, AM. Tuesday, May 22, AM. Thursday, May 31, PM. The solution for me was this: Disable the security key on my wireless router and then re-enable it. Proposed as answer by visualtech comptuers Sunday, August 19, PM. Tuesday, June 26, AM. I DON'T have access on the affected computer. The other options still have not worked as well or not as well-I should say.
I have tried every option thus far and still no access. We updated our security as well, scanned and detected nothing affecting the software or hardware portions of the computer. I don't know of anything else to do and can't use that computer for internet at all now. Friday, July 20, AM. Did any of the advice help so far? Also, another computer on the network can't ping this computer nor vise versa. Tuesday, August 21, AM. Thursday, August 23, AM.
All I too had the same problem, tried for several hours , uninstalled Mcafee Security Center but with no luck, at last with a simple command issue got resolved. Here are the simple steps go to Command prompt run as Admin and hit this command, you can check the lot what it does in resetlog. Notice that wireless has DHCPv6 and other things on it and the ethernet doesn't.
So I guess I need to make the wireless like the ethernet somehow? Windows IP Configuration. Skip to content networking tcpip windows 7 I'm tearing my hair out on this one. Best Answer. Restart and suddenly Windows 7 can see it. OSX could see it regardless but can still see it.
This issue may occur if updated network drivers are not installed or if any antivirus is blocking the connection.
