Wireless Connects but no internet

Hi,

First of all, check if your D-Link Access Point have a built-in cable router. What D-Link model do you have? becuse this will be your gateway to the external world ( Internet).

The machine can have a 100% connection signal but if there is some kind of configuration issue with the router and the NIC or some kind of mis-configuration of the NIC itself, then the machine is not going to access the Internet.

Does the machine work if you use a cable with the wire NIC and connect it to a LAN port on the router? Is it able to access the Internet?

What IP does the machine have with the wireless connection as opposed to the wire connection when you go to the DOS Command prompt and enter IPconfig /all?

I had the same problem, solid wireless but no Internet. It turned out that the Internet itself was down. Check to see if the Intenet connetions works at the router.

I am using WEP and another time I made a mistake and erased the WEP key. The same thing was happening. Solid wireless but no Internet. I retyped the WEP key and it worked fine.

Still another time I had selected the wrong Profile. You can do that with just a click. Why can't I learn that if it is not broke, don't fix it.
