Was your network WEP/WPA encrypted for security? Are you running any third party firewalls?( Norton Internet Security, McAfee, Trend Micro,etc.)

Try hooking an ethernet cable from your 1150 to the router and see if you can connect to the internet? If you can, then your wireless settings are off either with the router, or your wireless card? Is the wireless card external?, or internal?

Have either the drivers for wireless card or firmware for the router been recently updated? If No, you may try that to see if it fixes your problem?

I have this problem too.  did you find out an answer?

I travel alot.. this was working fine and in day four of the trip, i had internet connection, but could not get onto a web page.  I could't use it... and I returned home and thought all would be fine, but nothing.  It shows I am connected, but can't reach a web page.

I went to dell support,.... spent an hour with them and they have to call me back tomorrow after they research this.

 

any luck?  i tried all that you did and nothing.  when this happened the week before for the first time, a hotel techy told me that it needed to be reconfigured... and it worked.

 

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
