    Can't get Internet access on my router


    I have a desktop connected by wire to my Bell modem. I also have a laptop connected via wifi. I had a problem with updates not installing on the laptop so I did a restore to a previous save (about two weeks ago. When it completed, I can recognize my modem (Bell500) but when I try to use it it says "no internet access. It worked fine before I did the restore. ANy ideas what I could have done wrong or how I can fix it. The desktop connects fine by cable but the laptop can't get internet access. WIFI status shows IPV4 and IPV6 no internet connection.I'm LOST!

    Can you please click Windows Key-X (both at the same time), run Command Prompt (Admin), and then type ipconfig /all into that window? Cut'n'paste the results into a reply message so I can see what that says. I'm guessing you may no longer be getting DHCP services, but this output will confirm or correct my presumption.
    Thanks,

    It's not a DHCP problem: you have a valid private IP address, and a valid connection to your gateway (the router). Time to call your service provider, perhaps? Did the Bell router come from your provider, or is it your own equipment? They may be able to help you either way, but they will be a LOT more motivated if it's their router, not yours. Please advise...

    Good call, Samuria! Hadn't thought of that, but it also explains the situation.
    Thanks for chiming in.

    Here's the Tracert results. Ed's suggestion made it work a "little bit better!" but still reverts to no internet

    I would change your DNS server to 8.8.8.8 (Google's DNS) and try again. If this works it is a DNS problem.

    Network and Sharing Center/Click on the WiFi Connection/go to properties/Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) Use the following DNS Server addresses. And enter 8.8.8.8
