Hello,
I have DSL through verizon (if that matters). There are two computers hooked up via a switch. Previously there has been little issue with any of this outside of the occasional problem view the other computer via the network. Anyway, on sunday I attepmted to check my email and found my computer was unable to connect.
I tried several things to resolve this issue:
1) I checked to see if the modem lights were all on.
2) detected network settings as well as making sure net card was still working properly via the control panel.
3) Rebooted, then detected again
4) Checked the other computer and its connection is fine
5) Finally remember there is program (winipcfg) that allows one to reset and renew ip info from host.
Step 5 finally allowed me to gain some semblance of a connection but after about 3-5 min the connection ceases to work and I have to "release all" "renew all" again to restore it.
I would like to get this fixed if anyone has any ideas about why this is occuring.
BTW my computer specs (if this would be of any use)
750 mhz PIII
D-link fast ethernet adapter
Windows 98 second edition
w/ zone alarm (firewall software)
Panda Titanium (antivirus)
Thanks for your time,
Zack
