Hi I apologize if this is a dumb question, I've never worked with networks before. I just installed a Linksys WRT54G router, and I can not access email using outlook express. All the router settings are default cause honestly I didnt know what they all did so better not touch em right?
I am able to access email through webmail dunno if that matters, and the computer I am specifically having problem is wired through the router, and I havent tried it yet through the wireless one, I'll try that in a bit here.
The message I get from out look is
The host 'shawmail' could not be found. Please verify that you have entered the server name correctly. Account: 'shawmail', Server: 'shawmail', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 11001, Error Number: 0x800CCC0D
There was of course no problem before the router was installed.
Looking at the troubleshooting provided by the router it suggested changing the MTU to one of the following: 1492, 1462, 1400, 1362, 1300
Hopefully someone could suggest something else I could try to fix this. Also if there is anything else I should set on the router options please tell me also.
Thank for you're help
Dave
