I could not access the router, although when I looked at the Network Connection, it showed an IP address as well as that of the router, suggesting that there was no problem connecting to the router or for the router to connect to the Internet.
So I set up a new account on Ubuntu 9.04, and logged into that. Straight away that user had internet access with nothing blocked, and I could access the router and webpages okay in Firefox. So I then switched user back to my own normal user account and then had access to the Internet okay. So what else should I be looking for to diagnose why my main user account cannot access the Internet sometimes?
