Hey guys, my dads friend gave me his laptop, simply stating to "fix it". Not knowing what the problem was, I just checked if wifi card worked, mouse, usb ports, etc, they all worked. When I went to check the internet though, I couldn't connect to any websites. I tried to connect via IP, and that worked like a charm, but when you put in an actual URL, like [url]www.google.com[/url], it'll not work. I already went to cmd prompt and did a ipconfig /flushdns, that didn't do anything though. Windows XP, btw.
try using OpenDNS. google it
i have the same problem some of the time and i don't have a clue whats causing it.....ruddy annoying!
check what dns server you've got set...
