Very odd that the laptop configuration has 192.168.0.1 as the DNS server.
Wouldn't have said so ... my PC is wired into a Netgear router. PC is 192.168.0.2 and router is 192.168.0.1. IPCONFIG/ALL gives me:
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:

From the
DI624 manual:
Set the Primary DNS to be the same as the LAN IP address of your router (192.168.0.1).
The Secondary DNS is not needed or enter a DNS server from your ISP.
The strange bit for me remains this
dns servers: 192.168.1.9
64.245.166.16
That just ain't going to work? 192.168.1.9 is local but on a different subnet, and 64.245.166.16 doesn't respond if I ping it, nor does it turn up any results in a Google search.
Would help if you can answer the outstanding question "what happens if you ping www.pprune.org" ... seems to me that the PC is connected to the internet and can ping PPRuNe's IP address but isn't going to ping PPRuNe's URL as the DNS server is incorrectly set.
What happens if you run your browser and then enter the address
http://213.161.73.143 ... does that get you to PPRuNe?
Given that everything seems to be set to Automatic, need to understand how that 192.168.1.9 got into the DNS Server entry ... think it's wrong.
In another post you have the laptop with 192.168.0.102!!!!
That would definitely be a problem if both were on 192.168.0.102 at the same time! However if they are both set up for DHCP and used one at a time then the DHCP server could legitimately have given them both 192.168.0.2 at different times without any conflict occurring.
