Is safari the only thing that doesn't connect to the internet?

Are you certain your WiFi is connected to your Router? Check in the WiFi menu.


There is no way to turn it on or off. You're either connected or not.


Open Network System Preferences, Select WiFi from the list and click the Advanced… button.

Look at the Proxy page and see if you have any proxies checked. If so, uncheck, Apply, and test.
