  • networking problem . need help ?

    okay so yesterday everything was completely fine . then today i get on . and my COMPUTER wont load any webpaes even though its wirelessly recieving and sending data . it works perfectly fine on my laptop which im typing on now heres what iver done so far to try and fix my problem

    1. made sure my dns and ip config were set to automatically get in my lan settings

    2. have reset winsock, ipv4 ,ipv6, the dns cache .

    3. have reset the router and modem 3 times now

    4. have made sure all drivers are up to date and are functioning , no problems there .

    5. have disabled and now went as far as uninstalling my ANTIVIRUS and firewalls ( i will of course reinstall first thing before i do anything else once the issue is resolved , i also ran a full scan just before uninstalling to make sure it wasnt viruses )

    6. restarted the pc just to make sure that wouldnt be the issue

    7. and last i have reset all browser info to default and even MOVED my wireless adapter to different usb ports to make sure it wasnt that .

    after all this still nothing , im receieving and sending data based on my network centers status readout , and all other devices work fine (laptops ,cellphones ect .) i am using WINDOWS 7 home premium 64 bit , and im honestly stumped now and im at the end of my rope in terms of my networking knowledge . so im hoping somebody here will be more knoledgable than I, and can help me , Any fixes you can think of ?

Anyways the cars engine mid drive would stall then slowly the electrical systems would turn off . Could bad gas or water built up in the fuel tank cause this ? And if so what addiditive should I use for it , or what measures should I take ? I was considering getting sea foam cleaner or heet however I'm sure someone here could confirm that's right . I will give whoever best answers my question credit garunteed.
