Re: stopped connecting to web

as an fyi for the future, if you know your wan connection is good (internet) and other devices are connecting to your router no probs you can do one of three things.

1) When you press fix connection is actually performs a series of tasks to sort of refresh your connection settings in order to try and fix the problem
2) Open a command prompt (type cmd in the search bar) and type "ipconfig /release" and then "ipconfig /renew"
3) If all else fails the two easiest things to do is either log off and log on again or do a restart.

If that doesn't fix it then you'll need to come back for more troubleshooting advice.
