Initially neither the desktop nor the laptop was able to connect to the same sites. What really makes this strange is that after talking with d-link we re-booted it on a boot cycle the desktop could access the sites, even after the reboot the laptop still does not access the sites. Any ideas? I'm listing my set-up info and details about what I've tried below. Here are 2 of the sites I've been having problems with: http://www.ctrc.saci.org (page cannot be displayed, ping times out) https://jobs.intel.com/jobs/jobs.iccw(Same page cannot be displayed and main intel ping times out... HOWEVER I can view other intel pages: http://www.intel.com/jobs/) --- My current set-up: Net Connection: RR cable Wireless Router: D-link DI-514 -Laptop- System: Win98SE, laptop, P3 Browsers: IE, Firefox (neither work) Wireless card: DWL-650 Wireless PC card (signal strength 74%, link quality 80%) -Desktop- System: WinME Browser: IE Spyware Progs Installed: S&D (teatimer), Ad-aware, Spy Sweeper, SpywareBlaster, Spyware Doctor AV: McAfee Firewall: bulit-into router, ZoneAlarm (all above up to date and run regularly... well maybe extreemly compulsively actually) -- What has been tried: 1)All the AV/spyware programs have been run to check for issues. 2)All win updates avalible installed 3)latest router firmware upgraded 4)Crash recover the router 5)NIC release/renew 6)Powercycle modem and router. 7)ISP tested connection, etc on their end 8)turning off and uninstalling ZoneAlarm 9)turning off AV/Spyware programs to check for blocks 10)adjusting security settings in IE and Firefox |

Have you tried plugging the computer directly into the cable modem?
