    Not sure why this is happening, tried a few things, so far the problem is still there.

    In a nutcase:

    1) Went to friends house, wireless connects but doesn't load anything(doesn't receive any packets, transmits them though) - thought it was his wireless's problem
    2) Went to parent's house, wireless connects but again, nothing works.
    3) Won't be going back home until Sunday, but I hope the problem doesn't exist there, however, just in case, since I'll need internet to do work.


    I tried renewing and releasing though ipconfig, no help there. Repaired connection, nothing improved. Updated the wireless(Atheros) drivers, nothing improved. I don't know what happened, but it worked perfectly when I was at home earlier this morning.

    Help?

    Thanks.
