My computer only connects to MY internet?
When I use my new computer at home with my internet connection, it works. At other houses with other connections, it connects but says no connection. Same thing with 3 different connections. Is this some kind of security setting on my computer? How do i turn it off?

1. Click Start. Type cmd in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER.
2. At the command prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER: ipconfig /flushdns (there is a space between ipconfig and / ) It will show the message successfully flushed the DNS resolver cache. 3. At the command prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER: ipconfig /registerdns (there is a space between ipconfig and / ) 4. At the command prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER: ipconfig /all (there is a space between ipconfig and /) The ipconfig /all command displays Windows TCP/IP settings for all your network adapters. If your IP address for your Local Area Connection is either 0.0.0.0 or 169.x.x.x (where x is any number), then your computer is not getting an IP address from the router. If that is the case, try this: · ipconfig /release in the command prompt and press ENTER · ipconfig /renew in the command prompt and press ENTER Test it again by typing ipconfig /all to see what the address is? (If you are on a home router, it should start with either 192.168.1.x or 192.168.0.x or 10.x.x.x) Method 2: If the issue persists you may refer and use the steps provided below and as mentioned in the provided link - 1. Click on Start and then Control Panel. 2. Go to Networking and sharing center and then click on Change adapter settings. 3. Right click on Local Area Connection and choose properties. 4. Highlight Internet Protocol Version 6 and click on Properties. 5. Choose Obtain DNS servers address automatically and press Ok. 6. Choose Obtain IP address automatically. 7. Repeat the steps for Internet Protocol version 4 as well. Ads |

Does it ask you for security code? If it asks for code and you don't enter it, then no connection. If it is not asking for code then it is trying to connect to your home WiFi which is not there. In Windows 7 click on network icon in lower right and check that you are connecting to right WiFi. Right clicking brings up trouble shooting. In Win 8 press Window button + i to see charms bar and choose network or the 5 bars icon and see if you are connected to right WiFi.

There is only one internet. The thing that you connect to is a LAN.
