My problem is strange and got me quite baffled. On my LAN
I've got 3 computers running DSL through a US Robotics
router. No problem until yesterday. Two will access the
internet with no problem, while the third will not. I've
changed network cables and ports on the router. With no
luck. I checked my LAN settings on that system and
nothings been changed. I uninstalled the network device
and reinstalled it. No dice. I checked my hosts file to
ensure that a rogue program hadn't changed it. No change
there.
Strange thing is, is that I have complete access to my
shared folders on the other two computers from the third.
Now with LAN access but, no internet access, what does
that tell me.............nothing.
Strange, but, true.
Any help guys?????
Thanks in advance
