| 61864 | 2002-07-12 10:36:00 | Hi Megahurts, found these answers for you to check, from a similar posting. Hopefully they may be of some help to you! This can happen if you have got "Use Proxy Server" ticked. That's somewhere in the TCP/IP properties. Or even more basically, this will happen if you dont have a TCP/IP installed and bound to the dial up adapter, check in Control Panel-Network to see if TCP/IP is listed. Zone Alarm has caused this problem for me. If you have it, disable it and see if things work. |

| 61865 | 2002-07-12 10:58:00 | Jim B Those settings ok...can log on but then nothing ! ie only about 370 bits get transmitted or received...doesn't matter what program is connecting. It looks like all programs refuse to communicate once connection made. Replaced modem.. no difference |

However, enabled zonealarm then disabled it .....what do you know now my internet connection works again !!!!!! Thanks heaps would not of thought of that |
