Internet on my laptop is not working?
Whenever I try to use Chrome it simply reads "This webpage is not available", same with IE and Firefox.iTunes and Spotify can't connect to the internet either. I know it's not my router because my PS3 and iPhone are connected to it just fine. Is there anything I can do to fix it? Is it a virus? My knowdlege on computers is limited but I alpreciate any help. Thanks!
Added (1). I forgot to mention, my laptop says it IS connected to Wi-Fi. It even says "internet access" under my Wi-Fi name but nothing is working.
I bet you thought this was and an interesting answer… Quack
Did you accidently turn your Wi-Fi off on your computer? If there's a switch you might have switched it to off without knowing. Try unconnecting and reconnecting.
Make sure your Wi-Fi on your laptop is not turned off by accident. There's a shortcut that turns it off and on. Just Google your model and something should come up on how to turn it back on
