Answer 4

1. try to ping the website you want to view in the cmd windows.. if i can resolve the DNS entry of the site, try to telnet to that site:80. e.q. . telnet www.yahoo.com 80. after that type anything, if you can get some response, it means you connectivity is ok. . If not, check the DNS, default gateway and your home router's setting. . . 2. go to your browser, disable any proxy setting. pay more attention to auto detect proxy setting. disable that as well. . if brosing the web still fails, you may have to adjust the MTU to be less than 1500 on your home router which is directly connected to the internet via DSL, cable. I would try a value at 1400. . . Good luck.
