    IPv6 DNS - Can't visit webpage

    Uncheck the IPv6 in the network properties and try it again- some DNS servers do not use IPv6. Ran across this with a few XP machines that somehow got IPv6 on them and had the same results, so deleted the IPv6 (can only uncheck in Vista without reg editing) and was back to surfing. The test...

    Outlook Backup Tool problem after corrupted user

    This is a strange problem I haven't run across before. Three of our 80+ computers running XP Pro started up one morning with "corrupted user account" and could not log on to the network.

Tried many different older cards- Nvidia, Matrox...

    New connection with new modem...

    I have what I thought was a simple problem that has turned into a programming nightmare. Part of my job is programming dsl modems for our customers. When Vista came along we jumped on it with our laptops to have the OS for tech support issues. But trying to program a couple dozen modems is...

    File sharing

    http://cypherix.com/index.htm 25MB free, 2.5GB for $30, etc. Works great, also allows for encrypted files sent through email. Don't know if this is what you are looking for, try the free one and list the drive as a shared folder to see if it is accessed across the network. The test continues...

    Linksys IP conflicts

    Look in your network settings and see if IPv6 is installed. If so, try unchecking the box and see if it resolves the issue. IPv6 apparently has a 1 minute lag before giving up and reverting to IPv4. The test continues...

    Nice comment Crowtalks, this is exactly why my ISP company decided this week to only do company installs- no more self-installs causing hours of tech calls, miles of driving AFTER the install and customer complaints.
