Hi, everyone, i'm a beginner in networking and Internet access, so please bare with me.
I got an Internet connection about 5 months ago. It was ok for a couple of months, but then it started to malfunction.
Let me first explain the situation shortly:
I am part of a Local Area Network -- about 25 computers. We all have virtual IP addresses. (192.168.100.1 --
192.168.100.30, with a 255.255.255.0 mask). The guy with the Internet came and made 192.168.100.1 the gateway for all
of us.
When I do a tracert i see the following hops:
1. 192.168.100.1
2. 10.10.10.1
3. *
I was told the router echoes all my ping and other requests so that's why I can't see further more. The important thing
is that 10.10.10.1 is the next step to my Internet connection.
Now this is where I get my Internet from, as far as I'm concerned.
But, as I said, lately it does not work. Everyone else on my LAN has a running Internet connection and I don't.
I ping 192.168.100.1 and it has good reply (the lan is ok).
I ping 10.10.10.1 and I get Request timed out.
Whenever my Internet connection is ok, I get good ping reply from 10.10.10.1.
What could be wrong that my connection does not work? I have fresh installed Windows 2000 SP4.
Also I noticed that right after I restart my computer the 10.10.10.1 ping reply is good, and then in a couple of
minutes starts timing out replies.
Please help me with some advice, I really need Internet connection for my school research. Is it my computer's fauld, or the router's?
