No Google or gmail over wireless connection
Ok, this has got me baffled. I have a pc connected via cable to a DG834n Router. I can successfully connect to any webpage without fault. On a laptop connecting to the same router via wireless, i can access most pages apart from www.google.com, .co.uk, and gmail.com. I don't get a 404, the page tries to load without reporting errors or actually loading a page.
I can successfully ping both sites and have tried entering the ip address directly into the address bar with no success. I have tried Firefox, IE6 and IE7.
As you can imagine, life without google or gmail can be pretty dull!!
Thanks in advance.

OK, updated the firmware on the router and it worked fine. It had to be an issue with the laptop wireless device - can't think of anything else!!
