Hello I haven’t been on this website for a long time since it was xperience.org (years ago) I went by the name canibus. Anyway I’m glad I found this site again and re-registered.

I also have a problem I hope some of you can help out.

here is my situation
wireless router 3 pc's wired 1 laptop wireless
on all of my wired connections I can access these website http://www3.sunysuffolk.edu/index.asp

and
http://optonline.net


how ever on my wireless connection I cannot access either of them.
I just reinstalled windows xp home on the laptop today, running IE


at one point i could access optonline.net but it just stopped working. so i formated the system and i still cant access it, but now i cant access sunysuffold.edu which i used to be able to access but since the format i cant ( i need that site for school )



Any ideas? This is really bugging me out


Thanks guys
 
make sure all your computers are using your ISP's DNS and not your routers or private network's DNS.
 
Also check to make sure they are getting valid IP addresses, not 169.x.x.x

they are vaild 192.16.x.x i will check what the other guy said about the DNS. i will be by the laptop this weekend and will post results around staturday thanksfor ur time guys
 
My guess is also DNS.

To verify, you could open the command prompt from the laptop and ping 66.54.17.31 -- this is optonline.net. If you get good replies then it is DNS-related. If you can ping it, you could even enter that IP in your browser and the site should come up.

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???
