Re: internet connection problems

Do you have correct TCP/IP settings? Can you ping a public IP? Posting the result of ipconfig /all may help. Or check this step by step troubleshooting,

OK perhaps someone can help me with this. when at home on a comcast cable
connection connected through a link sys router everything works great. but
now that i am at school all is not so great. at first i thought it was
because i was behind a netgear router but i am using it as a switch. now
some webpages load but some do not or in some cases if the address is
forwarded it will not work. all this worked under windows xp but now does
not under vista

also i used outlook under xp and was able to get my outside mail which is
setup with pop access, but now under vista it will not connect. other
programs have the same problem not connected such as my avg virus software
and windows media center, can't connect for guide setup. so if someone could
please enlighten me i would appreciate it, i thought it was ipv6 but i
disabled that and still have the problem. i am confused. an example is if i
want to go to espn.com i simply can't type that, i have to type espn.go.com.
i have a xp laptop on the same network here at school and it works perfect,
just flaws with vista.
