Hello,

I have strange problem with my PPP connection. I'm using DSL with no router.
Suddenly after few hours i'm losing connectivity of both Firefox and IE, i can't open any page.
But at same time my Internet connection hasn't dropped.
With MS-DOS prompt i have normal ping and tracert to any public host even my 2nd PC(winXP) has internet.
In order to go back to normal i have to reboot and then till next time....

If no one can resolve that problem, the only hope will be SP1.....



Thanks!!!

Are you using your computer as a router, with the xp machine accessing the internet through it?

I had a similar issue on an old rig where one computer would cause the other to lose internet connection.

Have you tried looking at ipconfig?

Yeah it's a common problem. and you dont have to reboot there is an Easier way. You can just go to Local Area connection. but that's only a patch. the problem is cursed by one of your IE Ad Ones most likely one of your toolbars. On some it's the EBay one or the Win Live one. so try to turn them all off and see if the problem persists. then try to readable them one by one until you find the offending one. The Prerequisite updates interferes with some drivers.
