Well, my wireless icon now says that the signal is very good and yet I keep getting a page cannot be displayed message when trying to connect.

I manually put in my IP address because if it's automatic it shows as a 169 IP.

Good morning.
Just stopping in to say hi and then I’m off to buy groceries. What fun... Y’all have a great day!

That’s exactly the problem I was having. The IP address is 169.254.x.x. Which is a private IP address. What I did was put in an IP address, DNS server, and gateway addresses, and rebooted. Then I went back and set everything back to Automatic to automatically populate the IP address and it worked. Who knows why....
