No internet access

Hi,

I'm having trouble connecting to the net. 2 days ago it was all working fine, then yesterday i turned my laptop on to find that i couldn't connect. There weren't any updates performed that i know of before it stopped working, and the most annoying part is that my flatmates can still connect on their laptops.

I connect wirelessly, but have tried plugging in and still a no go. I've tried resetting the modem (an HG556a), restarting my laptop, removing the connection and creating a new one. My network card is an Intel Centrino Advanced N 6230 (driver version 14.1.2.3, i couldn't figure out if that's up to date or not)

After searching for solutions I've tried disabling my firewall and the ipconfig netsh winsock reset although i don't know if i needed to being windows 7. Now i have no idea what else i can try, so here I am.

Thanks for any help,
Nathan

I dont have any yellow marks but tried that anyway and no luck

I just did a system restore and now its all fine again. i guess something did update weirdly? i dont remember looking at anything dodgy but maybe.

oh well thanks for your help anyway, always good to learn new things to try for next time.

Usually automatically which i will change.

After shutting down last night and turning back on thismorning i cant get on the net again... I did update java before shutdown but that was it. No idea how to solve this issue..

Do you have McAfee installed on this machine?

You have no Internet access and/or see error messages from McAfee on your computer

Yes I'd say McAfee was the problem. I still have internet connection after rebooting. Little bit annoying that being the problem but i guess its all good now.

Thanks for the help :)
