I keep having this problem with new Windows 7 machines not connecting to the internet. They connect fine to the local are network but not internet. I chose workplace network. When I do diagnostics it keeps coming up with this message: "Your computer appears to be correctly configured, but the device or resource (DNS Server) is not responding" When I do a ipconfig /all it shows both DNS's. I have other windows xp and windows 7 machines that are on the same network and they never have a problem. What could be the problem?

Is this a wireless or wire network? Though you mention it shows both DNS when you did a ipconfig /all, what about the IP?

Thank you for your replies. This is a wired connection. Adapter driver status is working properly and with enough coxing i could get connected long enough to update the adapter driver. Network icon status has a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark in it. When i hover the mouse over it, it say not internet connection. I get ip's fine when I do an ipconfig /release and /renew Giving the network adapter IPV4 a static ip and manually put the DNS's in doen't solve the problem. It works for about 20 to 30 seconds then cuts the internet off again. I can ping the gateway, in obtain ip automatically mode. Sorry, I was wrong I can't ping the gateway. I can ping other devices within the network but not the gateway. It doesen't matter if it's static ip or DHCP.
