Cannot load half my web pages

Captain Maxx Power · 12-15-2007, 02:18 AM

I seem to have a problem with my internet connection. I can't seem to get on many websites. It's annoying because there's loads I need to access over the next couple of days before I head away, primarily so I can buy Christmas presents. The problems seem to have started recently after I installed an update for windows. I tried disabling Firewall to no avail. I'm currently using Firefox over a wireless network, which up until this point has worked just fine.

OK, so I'm bumping, have a go at me if you want, but I NEED this sorting out NOW. I've only got until Sunday.

Clear your cache?

Or maybe if you go to a public library computer you can get everything you need delivered to your house.

I've tried clearing my cache. I really don't want to order my stuff on a public terminal of any kind in the off-chance that my details may accidentally be stored without my knowledge. At least I know that my details are safe should I decide to access them on my computer.

Sounds to me like a problem with the wireless network, most likely a mis-configured DNS. What's your router make and model and also have you tried resetting your router? Then right-clicking (on the computer) the wireless connection icon and clicking "repair"?

I'd also check if it works better over a proper cable first if you have one
