TOPIC: Unable to connect to internet

I have a laptop with a wireless router and using NETGEAR wireless USB connector.
Mostly using Firefox to access the internet. All of a sudden I cannot reach a single
website. Get the timeout page- this is now day 3 of unable to connect
The info on the wireless connection says it is connected the the router, get IP address, signal strength etc.

Any ideas?

Oh, I tried to use IE and get the same result-nada

What IP address are you getting? Click Start->Run, type in CMD and hit enter, then type in ipconfig and hit enter to find out.

Good morning Dom,
Hope you slept before responding and were not up all night.

I get

Connection specfic DNS suffix:(nothing after the:)
IP address                          : 192.168.1.7
Subnet mask                       : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway                  : 192.168.1.1

If in doubt power it off.
All fixed now. Don't know why I had a brain freeze
and didn't turn off and reset the wireless router
before now. Guess I just needed the Telekinetic
Dominic connection to see the light

Hey Jeff,

Hit the sack around 4am, was trying to catch up. That IP address was definitely given out by your router which meant you had a good connection to the router. In which case you did exactly what you should have, reboot the router
