Could you sort this problem out for me, because I just don't have the know how to do it myself.

I have a internet connection problem that occured suddenly 4 days ago.

Every 2 minutes my internet connection goes onto "Access: Local Only". I can't view any pages. I thought it might be my signal strength which is not very good in my area. Sometimes it roams onto another network.

But recently I've been getting this "local area" problem.

I'm currently using a mobile broadband service (i.e. dongle) with Network 3 and they've told me that there is nothing that they can do about this problem. I have been with them for a year with no problems at all except for bad signal.

Also my "Local Area Connection" has a little red x beside it and the status is "unplugged".

I have diagnosed the problem using windows: "Cannot connect with DNS server".

Having looked at the properties and so forth everything seems to be in order. I have tried that "cmd" Netsh Winsoc command but that makes no difference. I have even tried System Restore and still the problem persists.

Any advice?

Is this on Windows Server or on a desktop operating system? This generally sounds like a security issue with a security policy and a desktop OS.
