My Skype is working, but my internet browser isnt.

[pleasel0uise]

Hi, my Skype is the only one working on my laptop. All the others (yahoo messenger, internet browser, google chrome, firefox) arent. Although, when I connect it directly to the modem, it works fine. When I use our wireless connection with a router, the Skype works but my internet browser and yahoo messenger doesnt. Did my dad tweak with the router? Is that possible? Please I need help, thank you

Welcome to SF,

Please try these recommendations in this order, you may stop and there's no need to continue if it works:

Check the browser's settings, remove or uncheck any proxy settings if found.

Hi bahilog,

Can you please post an ipconfig /all for review? Here's a tutorial.
Also, what type of Security Software do you have installed - McAfee, Norton, Webroot, etc...?

I had the same problem for many months trying to connect to any Wi-FI and it does not work.

Finally, I went to Wireless Network Connection Properties, Interet Protol version 4, and I found, by mistake I have give "User the following DNS server address with some IP"

When I made it Obtain DNS server address, Internet started workign through WI FI
