  1. How can I restore my internet connection?


    A few days ago, my PC's internet connection icon changed from 'connected. to 'no internet', but still managed to connect to the internet, so I initially thought it was just something weird with the icon.However, today, after rebooting this morning, the PC isn't connecting to the internet on either wi-fi or cabled. I have checked and every other device connected to the router, either wi-fi or cabled is working normally.This makes me certain that something has gone wrong with the PC itself. So does anyone have any suggestions of how to solve or at least discover what the problem may be?I can't

    :)

    • Click next to run the troubleshooter.

    W10 can connect to wider internet but cannot access web pages

    I have an odd issue with my W10 laptop linked to Sky broadband in the UK via wifi using a Sky router. The effect is that while I can actually access the internet (I can send and receive emails using Outlook and can connect to other machines using TeamViewer) I cannot access any web site (Google, BBC etc). There is no specific error message, merely that the access request timed out and a suggestion that it may be to do with proxy.

    I have tried the following:

    1. Other systems (W10 and ios) can access web sites using the same Sky router (therefore probably not a router problem)
    2. I have sent and received emails using Outlook, so the broadband connection is working (probably not a Sky problem)
    3. I have tried two different browsers (Firefox and Edge), no connection (not a browser problem)
    4. I am using Windows Defender and have:
      1. Made sure that Firefox is in the list of allowed systems in its Firewall, no connection after a reboot
      2. Turned off the Firewall and tried again - no connection
    My next step will be to re-install Windows, but has anyone got any other suggestions? Could it be some sort of virus (I have carried out a complete virus check using Defender)

    So - any suggestions?
