[QUOTE="joahn8, post: 1296161, member: 214960"] A friend of mine had the same problem (full bars on the wifi, but safari complaining about not being connected). I turned off IPv6 in her network settings, that fixed it. (I'm guessing it has to do with a poorly configured IPv6 router, and the Mac selecting the IPv6 over IPv4, so turning the broken IPv6 off forces the Mac to use the working IPv4 instead) [/QUOTE]
