When your WiFi is connected but no internet is there, you need to troubleshoot both router and your device.

So, let’s continue reading the post and resolve the Wifi connected, No internet error!

Why do I see Internet-connected but no Internet access is there?

If you are not able to connect to internet after several trials then you need to refer, Netgear router won’t connect to internet.

And if you are connected to the internet but internet not working then check out the following list of causes for WiFi connected no internet access that you need to diagnose on your device and router for further right resolution.

Outdated Network Driver

Your network keeps updating with the time for security reason. And, if you forget or ignore to update the concerned network driver, you’ll see no Internet error message on device even though connected to wireless router.

Conflicting IP address

Can you access wifi through computer but sees no internet message on iPad and iPhone or vice-versa?

If that’s a YES, it implies- those two devices have same IP address that allows wifi to connect but not access Internet.

Incompatible Wireless mode

Every router has a wireless mode that bears networking speed and coverage. These mode values look like 802.11g, 802.11n, 802.11b, or 802.11ac.

Out of these standards, 802.11b is the oldest and 802.11ac is the latest. So, if you own a quite old router and the device display internet connected, no internet access message then, surely the standard set is incompatible.

Corrupt DNS Cache

What all is accessed via Internet, it gets stored in the cache called DNS cache. And, if by any case, those temporary files get corrupt- you will see prompt message of No internet error, even though internet is connected.
