Well..Idon't know either (I don't know your setup at your office)...

User name and Password for the Internet?

You may be on a PPoE connection, if so you will have to get the User and Password from your ISP, if you don't have that info try it at home, and see if it connects...

Ummmm...well...

Could you get on at home, if not what error are you getting ?

And what IP address are you getting from home?

Got to help me out here, I can't see what you are seeing...

jedi master!

So sorry my friend I had to go just as I was about to get on!! I can only imagine that it's 2 am in Kentucky right now!

I was able to get on once I got home... same IP address. The connection seemed a little slow but once we rebooted it got faster.

I can't thank you enough for all your help
