Connection to wifi, but no Internet

I'm having problems connecting the Fire to Internet through my home wifi router. In my old home everything worked, as it does in the university (through the eduroam network), but here I don't know why I'm getting the "connected" icon (wavelines next to the battery icon) and an orange network connection icon (which says "connected" below), but the wifi icon on top has a cross on top and indeed the Internet connection is not working. After rebooting the router, the Fire, disabling wifi for a while, enabling again, and several trials, I once managed to get it working, but now it's failing again.

The router seems to be working fine, since I have the laptop connected in the same wifi network, and this message is being sent through it. As far as I know there's nothing special in the wifi setting, just input the password and it works (but I don't have the admin router password, so I can't see much more).

I find several similar cases in the web, but no clear solution. Does anyone have a better idea?
