    Im connected to the internet wirelessly and no webpage shows up. Just 'this page can't be displayed'.

    I've tried using internet explorer, firefox, chrome and its all the same.

    How do I fix this?

    There's a button under the 'this page can't be displayed'. Its a 'fix connection problems' button.

    I gave that a go and the following problems were found.

    The DNS server isn't responding.
    Your computer is trying to use a DNS server that is incorrect or doesn't exist.

    This is so weird. It worked fine the last time I was using it on Sunday.

    Help!

    Try changing you internet connection properties to use google's DNS - 8.8.8.8

    Is this problem only affecting that computer or all devices on the same wireless network?
