Why can't I connect to internet when my wireless broadband is working well?

I have almost the same problem, my laptop says i have excellent signal to to my wireless router but i can't browse the web, i tried fromatting my C drive but still same problem.

So the internet traffic between the Router and Your machine is good - but some software in the machine itself (firewall) is preventing the final delivery of the packets of data to your browser.

I don't know the answer but to find out what application or process may be causing it (so that you can stop that application or process) I would begin by using the machine's Task Manager.

I would also "kill" everything in the start-up list as a diagnostic - but make a note of everything killed. I would probably do this first.

Good luck...
