I use Windows XP, Media edition, Network Magic, a fast desktop HP, Comcast Cable, A D-Link DI 624 Router and a HP late model HP Pavillion laptop. In the past all worked fine. The desktop is connected to the DI Link router and then the computer. I can get to E-mail and Firefox fine. In the laptop it says on the Network Magic icon in the tray that I am connected and the speed is 5 bars (it sits only a few feet away from desktop), but I can not get to E-mail or via IE or Firefox to the Internet. I have tried to reset the D-link router, have powered both the Cable modem and Router down, have done a restart, but the laptop (with built-in antenna) still does not connect, even though it says I AM CONNECTED. I am asking for advice now, since I have run out of ideas, especially since it used to run fine for months before.

Can you ping www.google.com ? Maybe your dns is bust. Firewall blocking maybe ? []'s
