Re: Cannot access Yahoo Mail or Hotmail through Netgear Router MR814v2

Right click My Network Places and select Properties. Right click your network connection and select Properties. On the General tab, in the "This connection uses......" highlight Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties. You should be set to Obtain an IP address automatically, and your DNS servers are nornally set to Obtain automatically. You might want to check with your ISP though for the correct settings for their network.

Thanks for looking. That IP is my ISP Launch Modem site. How do I change that
to get Yahoo Mail to work with the router?

Windows XP sp2, Windows firewall.

I configured the router with WEP for 1 wireless laptop. There are 2 other
desktops with Ethernet connections to the router. With these desktops, I can
access the internet, get Outlook Mail, but Yahoo Mail dies when I press Get
Mail. Disabling the firewall does not solve the problem. What does solve the
problem is going directly from the westell modem to the box. Once the router
is entered in between, dead. Here is ipconfig/all text... any help is
appreciated.
