Weird internet connectivity problem!- Only browser works
Well I was my laptop normally, and then when I tried to load a page it said no internet. I checked and it had the little yellow exclamation mark and said "no internet access". I disconnected and connected again, but to no avail. I reset the router, but still no help. Finally I restarted my computer as I have had this problem before and it was solved by restarting my computer. When I restarted it connected and showed "internet access" but when I opened Chrome and went to a webpage, it stopped while saying "resolving host" and then said no internet. Some other programs as well couldn't connect, such as Avast! I had the trial for internet security and it said a secure DNS connection wasn't available or something. I connected to the Ethernet cable and my browser worked fine. I disconnected and reconnected to wi-fi and the browser worked fine. However I still have the problem with Avast and other applications. Avast can't sign in and it says can't connect to internet. I actually just checked and it seems to be having the same problem even when connected by Ethernet cable. I need this problem rectified soon! It is important that I get these programs to work!
