    New laptop.. bad wireless
    I just bought a toshiba sattellite laptop that has internal wireless internet. I can use skyp without a wire and Google and very few other websites will connect but every other website won't connect unless I'm using a hardwire... when I use a wire everything is great but wireless is very bad... and I know my wireless works cause I can connect on other devices... I was told it may be a virus I reformatted the computer like 3 times in less than one month to no avail... does anyone have a clue to what's wrong with my computer... its only been with me for 1 month?

    It sounds like you may have a faulty wireless card in your new laptop. I would first try uninstalling the wireless adapter by going to device manager and right clicking on the wireless adapter and clicking uninstall. Reboot, and then it will reinstall when you log back in. if that does not work, I would get with toshiba since it is under warranty and you have only had it for one month. Also before you contact toshiba, go to your internet options and set everything back to default on the security tab for internet and intranet. Then close and reopen internet explorer to see if that helps.
