My XPERIA mini won't connect to the Internet through Wi-Fi

I've got DLink Wi-Fi router at home. All computers need only the key and connect to the Internet without any problem.

But my new xperia mini wan't. It connects to the router, says: "Connected. Signal is very good." But it doesn't go to the Internet, says: "web-page is unavailable".

What could be wrong?

Thank you!

Thanks, but I did everything you've said.

I downloaded screenshots from my phone here: http://picasaweb.google.com/AlexandraMalenkova/XPERIA#

I can make screenshots from my router... it sees my phone.

P.S.: I've made some screenshots from my router...

Ok - nice pictures.  You get a lot further than I had thought.  Try this then: in your browser, do not enter a URI but try "192.168.0.1" instead.  Do you see your router?  Given how everything looks good, I am thinking that may be your DNS configuration is out (don't ask me why) so that the URI-to-IP resolution is failing.  If that also fails, can you "ping" your phone from your computer?

Do a factory reset, if that doesn't work, proceed to software repair. Good luck.

Ann, thanks.

My phone doesn't see my router... :-((

I've tried to ping my phone from my computer. It said:

Download Wifi Fixer, sorted my problems out straight away.

I had the same issue but noticed that I could connect to some public wifi like Starbucks.

I updated the firmware on my Lynksys router which fixed the issue at home.  It's not universal unfortunately as some routers are still an issue.
