Re: Users can't access internet

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

My internet connection is ADSL. No, it doesn't require a dialer or extra
software, and my router is set up for PPPoE.

I have 2 pc's, both running WindowsXP - Media Centre Edition SP2 , I am
the
administrater on both. One is wired to a Netgear router, the other, a
Netgear wireless adapter. The wireless pc has myself and 3 user accounts.

Problem is; I can access the internet but the 3 users can't! If I log on,
then log off or switch users, they are able to access the internet. If
they
try without me having logged on first, they can't, everything else works
fine.

Simple file sharing disabled, Windows Firewall disabled, Zone Alarm Pro
and
NAV are installed and enabled. Netgear folder is shared. Any ideas?
Thanks

Steve,

What type of Internet service do you have? Does it require a dialer or
extra
software on the computer? Maybe Dialup Networking? If your service is
PPPoE,
you should set the router up for PPPoE, and connect thru the router as the
default gateway.
