Are you getting an IP address?

Maybe you have static IP information in from a previous connection?

Can you ping 8.8.8.8?

What you can try is to release and renew your PC's ip.

Go into cmd prompt and type:

Ipconfig /release

Enter

Ipconfig /renew

Enter

Might help. Might not. Give it a shot.

In that case your connection is working.

Can you ping www.google.co.za as well?

If yes, browser problem, if not DNS problem.

I was struggling with Ipad once, problem was the WEP security - should have been set to AES not TKIP
