Connected a PC to the ADSL router wireless. All other WiFi devices iPad, phones, laptops are working fine.

Are you getting an IP address?

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

Can you ping 8.8.8.8?
 
Going into router settings I see all devices picked up and IP 10.0.0.7 assigned to this PC. Type: class0 Dynamic.

Please dudes I'm noob, speak baby language :p
 
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.

I did. First did Ipconfig/flushdns then the other 2 cmds.

Not working. The wife wanted to format PC and reinstall all software but told me now it does not want to format :confused:
 
So you can ping 8.8.8.8?

In that case your connection is working.

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

If yes, browser problem, if not DNS problem.
