I was online today when after about 10 mins I had 'no internet access' with the little yellow triangle over the icon in the bottom right of the task bar. I thought I had lost internet connection due to the snow. But no I haven't. So what is happening?
In network and sharing center, the full map has a red cross inbetween network 2 and the internet. I've always used 'network 2'.
I have a wireless router (for my laptop and my nephew's laptop when he visits) but it is wired up to my desktop pc which I what I'm currently using.

Replying to my own message...
Just had a slight power cut (the entire house) for about 5 seconds. Started the computer back up and now saying internet access. Any suggestions as to why it had said 'no internet access'? :think:0 -

I copied pasted my original post. Do you think the 'no internet access' has something to do with why it's blank?
