I have compaq c700 laptop, i connect usb network modem ,only i am able to connect voip only, but when i open the browser(internet explore,chrome etc) page it was not connected

Im not sure what kinda modem you have ..but I think if you connect it via usb you need to install the driver for it ...so ..if you have a driver cd ..run it and make it be seen by the computer ..Usually the modem can run without driver but only on the network port in the network card ..This explains why the phone works and not the internet connection itself..Either use it in the Lan card port ..and make the settings you need for the network ...by log into it using it's IP address in the browser ...or install the driver and try to connect it by usb ..

Internet

Maybe your wireless is turned off. You should have a button to turn it on on your front side or somewhere on top of the keyboard.

I am using a Compaq Presario V3000 laptop - 2yrs old. Recently my laptop speed has been too slow. IE is not connecting to any website. However internet is connected i.e. Yahoo & Skype are working

Please run system restore to factory default but backup your documents first.

Try another browser like Opera or Firefox.

Good luck.
