How do I fix a problem with internet connectivity through Bellsouth DSL?
When I boot using network safe mode, I get connectivity, but when I boot
regular it will not connect. Is this a firewall problem in service pack 2
and if so, how do I get around it??

Hello hw,
If you have SP2, first check to see if the Windows firewall is on with
exceptions,
click start>click control panel>click Security Center>click Windows
Firewall> look to see which box is checked , if on with no exceptions is
checked then check> on allow exceptions> to turn off Windows firewall check
the bottom box. If you turn off
Windows firewall get a software firewall and use that. You do not want to
use a high speed connection without a firewall. If this dosen't help you
connect you might need to configure your homepage in Internet Explorer. SBC
will help you with this. Best of luck to you.
