| 519619 | 2007-01-27 02:51:00 | Hiya guys You will not believe this - I've actually installed a wireless sytem without any problems, first time. The wife's Toshiba lappie, also shows a wirel ss connection (although I have to admit the damn thing showed "wireless connection is off" and lo and behold, there is this little switch on her lappie that you push and it's on - funny that). My problem is the following : altho' her lappie is on wireless, it does not want to connect to anything - not updating the AV, nor her school website. I think I saw the problem - on her Explorer, Tools, Internet Options, Lan settings it shows "Proxy.stratford" as the proxy server. The same with the rest - proxy.stratford appearing everywhere. This tells me I should probably leave it at that, and set up a new log in to her XP, without any proxies - and then she can still use the current login at school? Or am I totally daft and there is an easier solution? Thanks in advance sarel |

| 519623 | 2007-01-27 03:13:00 | Under tools / internet options / connections / lan settings. Or wherever u saw these proxy.stratford entries. Is it ticked under proxy server? If it is untick it. Once she's at school again tick it, it'll use the proxy again. |
