Hmmm, strange.

Ok, try disabling it then re-enable it, and see if you can connect to the internet.

What browser are you using? Firefox, IE 6, IE 7 ect..

===================

If that doesn`t work, then go to Start > Run > type in cmd > in the command prompt, type ipconfig/ flushdns

Note the space between / and flushdns

Are you still having problems?

Regards Jason

still no connection through firefox. I usually use firefox but i've tried both internet explorer and firefox with the same results.

[Jase123]

Have you flushed the DNS cache like I said above?

Regards Jason.

[proven25]

yes I did

[Jase123]

Ok.

Disconnect your modem from it`s power supply, remove all cables from the modem, and power off your pc.

Wait 30 seconds and plug everything back in, and turn your computer back on.

Do you still have the same problem?

If yes, go to Start > Run > type in cmd in the open field > type ipconfig /renew

Does the problem still exist?

---------------------------

If your still unable to connect, download Winsock XP fix, and then transfer it too the computer your having trouble connecting to the internet with and then run it.

If your still having problems, please let me know.

this computer is operating on windows NT 2000. will XP fix work?

[Jase123]

I don`t think it will as it`s specifically made for windows XP. Although, there is no harm in trying.

Do you have a router connected ?

Regards Jason.

[proven25]

yes there is a wireless router connected. even when disconnecting that and connecting directly through the modem it doesn't work.

[Jase123]

That is very strange indeed.

Is your firewall allowing incoming/outgoing connections?

Regards Jason.

[proven25]

If I have a firewall on that computer I don't know how to access it. I am using this computer without a problem so i'm pretty sure whatever the problem is, it's the other computer.
