Laptop Connects to Network but Not Internet

[Touching Centauri]

Hi all, I'm hoping someone can help me here. My laptop (Packard Bell Easynote) will connect to my network but not the internet. On the Network and Sharing Centre it says "Unidentified network" despite the network being called "HomeWireless".

I've tried repairing the connection in windows, and tried turning the router on and off. My flatmates' computers are all connecting fine. I've tried renewing IP settings but no luck so was hoping someone here could help as this is all a bit beyond me. I've tried pinging some sites which all fail. My IP settings currently are:

Windows IP Configuration


Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:

Media State . . . . . . . . . . . : Media disconnected
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :

Wireless LAN adapter Wireless Network Connection:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :

Thanks for any help. This is driving me nuts!

Try disabling you antivirius and firewall, and see if that does anything.

NOD32 doesn't play well with my schools network, so I have to disable 'Web Access Protection' to get it to behave.

Cheers, I've tried that but no joy. I've never had any connection problems until this suddenly started playing up so not quite sure what might have caused it.
