PC connected by can't access the Internet!!

[Maurice]

Hi

I have a HP Compaq nx6310 operating with Windoes XP and which has service pack 1. I have this linked to my Netgea router via a Devolo dLAN device using an ethernet cable. The screen shows that I have a Local Area Connection with a speed of 100Mbps. I have 'pinged' my DNS Server and got 0% losses and an avergae of 3ms speed for 4 packets sent.

But I cannot access the Internet although I have gone through all the property tick boxes I can thing of.

Any suggestions about how I overcome this problem?

I hope to hear from anyone soon.

Cheers

Maurice

Have you actually been into the routers home page and configured the router?

Can you PING Google If you can, then your Internet connection is good and you have a DNS issue.

Perhaps related to Dalo's question - does your notebook connect to the Internet when plugged directly into the router?
