Hello

We were running 2 laptops wireless with out issues. Now all of a sudden 1 laptop has refused to load web pages. It says that it is connected to the modem with full strength, but times out on all pages. I have tried to ping yahoo, google with no luck.

It is running Windows XP.
Modem is from Telstra Bigpond - Tomson TG782T gateway

I have also tried to connect directly via the ethernet cable with no luck.

Can you let me know what steps to take next please? My computer is working fine, running Vista. Any other information you need?

Thanks

Open Internet Explorer. Click Tools > Internet Options > Connections > Lan settings > Proxy server > Advanced > delete proxy server settings > click OK > uncheck all boxes > click OK.

In Firefox, click Tools > Options... > General > Advanced > Network > Settings > delete proxy settings > select No proxy > click OK.

In Internet Explorer, the proxy server is all greyed out, so I can't click on advanced. I guess that means that the settings are not there anyways?

Have you tried disabling your firewall?

If no luck,

Click Start > Run > type CMD

In the Command Prompt, type in the bold text, one command after the other, pressing Enter between each one of them:

Reset WINSOCK entries to installation defaults: netsh winsock reset catalog

Reset TCP/IP stack to installation defaults: netsh int ip reset reset.log

Reboot the computer.


If still no luck,

Click Start > Run > type CMD.

Press OK.

In the Command Prompt, type ipconfig /all.

Press Enter.


Copy (right-click and Select All > press Enter) the entire content of that window and paste it into your next reply.

[Dizzydragonfly]

Firewall is currently disabled.

The winsock thing didn't work either.

Here are the results of the ipconfig /all;

Can you connect to the Internet after booting into Safe Mode with Networking?

[Dizzydragonfly]

No, I just tried the safe mode with networking and still no luck,. Says windows explorer could not open the search page.

[Phantom010]

Have you ever had or recently uninstalled Norton, McAfee, AVG or Avast?

Why haven't you upgraded IE6 to IE7 or 8?

[Dizzydragonfly]

I run Avast on my computer. We have Avira on the one that has issues.

[Phantom010]

OK, but on the faulty computer, ever had any of the antivirus applications I have mentionned?

[Dizzydragonfly]

Explorer is not our default browser. we use Chrome.

How to Disable Proxy Server on Google Chrome

[Dizzydragonfly]

I think we had AVG for a while, but it kept letting stuff through so we changed to avira.
