ok, for some weird reason i get this error now with my inter net, i cant use my wireless lan card or even connect straight to with the normal networking cable...its on my laptop..its win xp pro sp2..any ideas??
 
When using the cable, are you trying to connect directly to the modem? That's one way of finding out if it's your router or the ISP.

Have you tried release/renew through the command prompt? ipconfig /release and ipconfig /renew
 
well i found thisa

Go to --> start
Go to --> run
Type --> CMD
Type --> netsh winsock reset

Note - This command only works under SP2


and it worked..thanks though..
 
Ahh, you had a winsock problem... how did you figure that out?
 
well i did whati should have done, searche dthe wbsite..and a post had ccome up about renewing an ip address...so i said.."meh" and tried it..and it works great..

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
hello peeps... is been some time since i last came here.
