Internet not working on new laptop?

[Vulgarlunch316]

So earlier today I got a new Dell Inspiron 15R laptop. It seems to be working nicely, but the internet isn't working. It connects to my wireless network, but the internet wont work, it says that the page can't load. I tried a bunch of methods I found online, but none of them are working. On all the other (many) devices in my house, the internet is working fine.

I tried shutting it down, and changing some settings (the proxy thing was unchecked by the way), but nothing was really working. I just really want it fixed

The connection says it is 'limited' but the I can't successfully get on the internet.

Please help me. Also I am no tech genius- so I might not understand everything tech wise. Also it used Windows 8, so that should help you.

Thanks!

click windows+x >> device manager >> network adaptors....
now if there is an exclamtion mark in yellow triangle then it means u do not have a driver for your wifi..... i recomend you to dewnload it... make sure to choose 32bits(x86) if your os is 32bits and 64 bits(x64) if your os is 64bits...
just google it or go to dell site....

if not then a driver is already installed . click your wifi indicator from your taskbar.... click it and their would appear a menu. choose troubleshoot. now let the os fix your problem....

i hope this will work... if its still not working then maybe you should go to your technician and let them do it coz it is poosible that you do not have the hardware that supports wifi or maybe it is broken...
