Everything was working fine...
Hi, I have a problem with my network. Everything was working fine then suddenly one of my computers could no longer connect to the internet. I am running a dual NIC setup on the comp which shares the internet:
Let's call it Comp-A NIC-1 connects to my cable modem. NIC-2 connects to my switch/hub. Comp-B NIC-1 connects to my switch/hub Both are on WinXP Pro and set up with the ICS wizard. I formatted Comp-B and got it to the point where it could connect to the internet but couldn't access various sites. I can access URL but I can't access URL Update/MSN messenger. Comp-A can access all of these. All cable are secure and operational. If I connect Comp-B directly to the modem without going through Comp-A everything is fine. |

What happens when you try to access these sites?
Have you setup DNS properly? On the network connection, you need to enter in the DNS servers from your ISP. |

When I try to open URL it will try to open it normally but nothing is recieved. The status bar will say "Opening http://www.microsoft.com..."
The title bar stays at "about:blank" The page has been trying to load for over 10 minutes without an error page However, when I select Tools>Windows Update the title bar will change from about:blank to Microsoft Windows Update. After a few minutes I will get the "cannot display page" error. I can access msn.ca and do a search for "windows update" and access the windows update page normally though. But loading is very slow, about 5 minutes to load the pages. After I scan and pick the updates and press install i will get a page saying an error occured. This is very strange. Everything was working flawlessly before. And it can connect fine if I connect directly to the modem. I believe I have setup the DNS servers properly. Here are my settings for my computers and their NICs: Comp-A NIC1(Internet) IP address - 65.49.0.147 Subnet Mask - 255.255.248.0 Default Gateway - 65.49.0.1 DHCP Server - 24.153.23.10 DNS Servers - 24.153.23.66 24.153.22.185 NIC2(LAN) IP address - 192.168.0.1 Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0 DNS Servers - 24.153.23.66 24.153.22.185 Comp-B NIC1 IP address - 192.168.0.65 Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway - 192.168.0.1 DHCP Server - 192.168.0.1 DNS Servers - 24.153.23.66 24.153.22.185 |

Ahhhh forget it, I will just format both computers and setup my network from scratch. Thanks for trying to help me out
If it still doesn't work then I'll be back again. |
