Cannot get access to the internet

Article on the Virtual WiFi Mini Port Adapter, but you can disable it if you aren't going to use it as it can sometimes cause connectivity problems, but never has done for me. http://helpdeskgeek.com/windows-7/what-is-microsoft-virtual-wifi-miniport-adapter/

You just enter tracert at the command prompt instead of ping and it lists the Hops it would take to resolve the address - give it a try with www.google.com - it takes 11 hops for me from the UK to resolve with a ping of 30ms but as you are much closer it won't take so many.

There's one other thing that you can try and that is to right click on either the LAN and/or Wireless adapters in Network and Sharing Center/Change adapter settings (depending upon what you have enabled) and select Properties then uncheck the box for TCP/IPv6 - OK - Close then reboot.

Is what you posted about Server what was in Event Viewer or when you clicked on it in services ?

rhuffman:
It was in services, what would i look for in event viewer? Took me 10 hops ranging from a low of -1 to a high of 43 ms. Turning off TCP/IPv6 had no effect.

jraju:
Hi, Rhuff  Please see this link
From
http://wiki.bitcomet.com/add_port_mapping_in_nat_router, where your problem have been analysed and workarounds are given. It specifically dealt with  half  internet connectivity.

Boggin:
In Event Viewer when it has read the logs, you will have listings for Critical, Error and Warnings etc.

Click on Error then on View All Instances of These Events in the right pane.

Clicking on each that are listed will produce a brief description in the lower window - check to see if any relate to connectivity and let us know what they are together with the Event ID No. if any.

On the affected computer open a command prompt and enter ipconfig /all then right click in the text area and click on Select all then press enter.

Open Notepad or Wordpad and paste the output into there and Save_as then copy that across to your working computer and copy & paste into the reply box.

Can you also run the ipconfig /all command on your working computer and note that the preferred IP address for whichever adapter you are using for the Internet on that one is not the same as either of the Wireless or Ethernet of the affected one.

If you are getting a DHCP address assigned on the affected computer, then you can try assigning the affected computer with a static IP address for it either in the router or in the computer's TCP/IPv4 Properties - but we'll need to see the output of the ipconfig /all first.

As you are able to ping 8.8.8.8 then you could try using that DNS address in the computer's TCP/IPv4 Properties.

Check the radio button for Use the following DNS server addresses and enter an 8 into each of the boxes in the top row and then 8.8.4.4 into the lower row - check the box for Validate settings upon exit - OK - Close and that should activate the Troubleshooter - let us know if that reports anything other than couldn't find a problem and then reboot.

Can you also check back with your ISP to see if they can still detect Citadel from your IP address.

Shane:
The part that makes this confusing is the fact that the pings work, and even have really good response times.

Cant remember if you tried this yet or not, but download the newest version of my Windows Repair tool, make sure to do a clean boot and then run all of the repairs.

Also download teamviewer from another computer and put it on yours and see if it is able to get an id and password. If it is able to get online I could connect to you and take a look as well. Mainly because I am freaking curious how pings work nice and fast yet nothing else does lol
