(Wirless) Says I'm connected, but I am not.
I have 2 HP laptops and one connects, but the other one does not. Both are running W7-64. On the one that does not connect, the system tray says I am connected and when I go to the Network sharing center, it says I am connected. Then I disconnected from the wireless network and then connected. Everything seems to be connected (but I am not) I then did a ipconfig/ all and it shows my IP address as within the range of the router. I pinged google.com and the ping did connect. I then went into the adapter properties and changed the IP address from "automatically assigned" to a specific address and I changed the DNS servers to the OpenDNS servers. Nothing seems to work. By not working, when I open IE it goes to an error page. When I try to enter an IP address, I get the same thing. BTW, I tried using IE-64 and IE-x86 with the same results. Any ideas of what to try next?
