I'm loosing my internet connection after surfing /IE6 or
emailing w/Outlook or Outlook Express. It will just stop
and gives a DNS error in IE. I can ping the outside world
using IP addresses, but not domain names. My system specs
are:
Win XP Pro
2x 2.4GHz Xeons
1 GB Crucial RAM
Asus PC-DL Deluxe MB w/onboard Intel Pro 1000 CT NIC
Topology:
Me - Linksys switch - Linksys router - cable modem -
outside world
Someone suggested I run a program called Winsock XP Fix
which rewrites the tcp/ip stack in the registry. It
didn't work.
The only thing I've found out in all this is that this
problem 'seems' to be isolated to dual cpu machines. This
is the second dual cpu computer that I've had this
problem with. Is there something different with a 2 cpu
kernel?
I've also tried ipconfig /releasedns - /renewdns without
luck. The only thing that works is a reboot. I do this 2-
5 time every night and that's getting really old.
Any help or suggestions would be very, very welcome.
