I can connect to Wi-Fi but cannot access the Internet. What's going on? [Copy link]

 

If you can successfully connect to Wi-Fi but cannot access the Internet, there may be several reasons:

1. No network connection : First, make sure that the Wi-Fi connection is to an available network. Sometimes the Wi-Fi connection is available but there is no Internet connection, which may be due to a problem with the router or a problem with the network provider.

2. IP address conflict : If multiple devices use the same IP address on the same network, it may cause IP address conflicts and network connection problems. You can try to set the device's IP address to obtain automatically, or manually change the IP address.

3. DNS problem : DNS (Domain Name System) is a service that converts domain names into IP addresses. If the DNS settings are incorrect, it may result in failure to resolve domain names and inability to access the Internet. You can try changing the DNS server address or using a public DNS service.

4. Router settings : Sometimes the router settings may affect network connectivity. For example, if the router is set up with an access control list (ACL) or MAC address filtering, some devices may not be able to connect to the network.

5. Firewall issues : Firewall settings may prevent some devices from accessing the Internet. You can try turning off the firewall or adjusting the firewall rules to ensure that the device can access the Internet normally.

6. Device problem : Finally, if none of the above methods solve the problem, there may be a problem with the device itself. You can try restarting the device or trying to connect to a different network to troubleshoot the problem.
