My laptop has decided to be broken again. Trying to load any web pages results in a timeout "this web page is not available" page. My connection is fine because I can use my tablet fine. I'm stumped. Heeeeeeelp!

Your DNS entries could be out of whack for your network. I regularly get that when my DNS is messed up on a site that I know is up and running.

You can try flushing your dns and re registering things. If you give me an email address i'll send you a bat file that you can run as an administrator that will do this for you with no typing. I have to run it several times a day cause internal sites at work break *sighs*

If that doesn't work you can check your DNS settings.

Here is how you can check your DNS settings. http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detai...correct%3F

However I don't know if that is the correct dns entries 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 are google's DNS ips.

Aria's suggestions are good. If that doesn't work, get on chat on your tablet and I can help troubleshoot the issue.

According the link my DNS setting are correct. I think it might have been a firewall issue (no idea why it decided to suddenly block the internet) but seems okay now. Thanks guys!
