Airport says connection is strong but unable to load pages

This is a new problem within the last couple of days. My Internet was working totally fine but all of a sudden now it says it is connected but web pages won't load at all with google chrome (up to date) or any other server. I've tried restarting the modem and router, the computer itself many times, resetting the location, resetting the DHCP lease, restarting "PRAM". Ethernet wasn't working either but I'm not sure that that is related. Network diagnostics says the Internet is connected. The wifi on my iPhone is working totally fine. I've tried emptying the cashe and no proxies are checked off. I've tried other wifi networks nearby which also don't work on my MacBook but my roommates aren't having any trouble at all with their pcs. Please help!!

I'm using a MacBook pro 2009 with os x 10.6.8, 2.26 GHz intel core 2 duo.

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

that couldnt use the WD formatted backup

WD drive from the factory will have a Windows partition Map.

For Time Machine, the drive must be partitioned in Disk Utility with ( Options ) GUID Partition Map and a Volume Mac OS X Extended (journaled).

I'm having this problem as well. I notice this post is months old, so if anyone has a solution to this problem that doesn't involve going to apple I would appreciate it a lot.
