Wi-Fi Connected, but no internet access

Hi all

Returned to my holiday apartment where my laptop, Ipad and Iphone have all worked perfectly for years connecting to my router via wifi.

Now I find that the Ipad and Iphone connect to the router ok, but no web pages will open (can't find the page / you are not connected to the server etc etc) but the laptop still works perfectly as ever...

The only thing that has occurred since I last used the Ipad and Iphone without problems here is that I upgraded the software on both last week....so, surely, the problem must relate to the software auto upgrades by Apple?

I am beginning to think I should avoid upgrading software at all until all bugs seen and fixed by Apple!

Has anyone else had this issue since last week, please, and is there any way I can 'undo' the software upgrades back to previous without losing all my data and photos etc?

As someone said above, an Ipad or Iphone that works via wifi all over the country but not in my home is hopeless!

Thanks

Well well, Apologies to Apple.

I contacted Movistar (my apartment is in Tenerife) and asked them to 'resend' wifi to router, which they did, and, hey presto, all back to normal!

So to recap, my laptop worked via wifi off the router, but my Ipad and Iphone whilst 'connecting' to same wifi did NOT open web pages etc....so, can it be the 'weak' wifi signal drove the laptop ok, but not the 2 apple products properly?/ Seems very much like it..

The renewed wifi signal to the router has cured all>

Apologies again to Apple.

Hope this helps someone!

Cheers

Thank you. Rebooting my computer worked for me as well. It appears that Tunnelbear caused the issue, as my network connectivity was fine until I used it.

Thanks a lot, it works!!! I was afraid my internet connection would be damaged forever!

I have been searching for a solution to this problem all night only to know that all I have to do is restart my dang router. *facepalm*

oml thank you so much

Hi I was wondering if you could give a more detailed explanation on how to resolve this issue, preferably in words the slightly less technology advanced would understand. Please

Was that English?

Thank you for your help,the only one useful for me.

This worked -after everything else did not,

how did you figure it out?

Thanks

Thank you jofromnope!!!! This works every time!

If your phone/laptop/etc. says there is no internet connection and still shows the WI-FI symbol. It probably means that the wifi owner has blocked your IP Address. Get a new device and it will work... if you want to keep the same device then please follow the steps on my video. https://youtu.be/kv6HWuStzHs . I couldn't find the solution on YouTube or anywhere. I pretty much found the solution myself. On all devices it's pretty similar. This video is focused on the iPhone. Good luck!

I had this problem, but then I realised my VPN was trying to connect, so I switched the VPN connection from 'auto join' to 'off'. This has helped..

This worked for me :)

A possible solution is to reset you time Zone settings. My 2013 MacBook Air had the same issue and i realized the time was wrong so it wouldn't let me access the internet.
