    Look for something called DNS server. It will need to be filled in. The DNS server translates the web addresses you type into an ip address. Check perlico's website for their settings.

    Or use 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2

    There are any number of reasons apart from dns. Are you syncing with perlico?

    When you say that the signal is excellent is that a wireless signal?

    Are you getting an IP from your modem/router? and make sure NAT is enabled.
