The description of "intermittent" was literal.
Rodney communicated:
Affirmative. Why?
Rodney communicated:
The latter.
Rodney communicated:
This appears to have transpired since upgrading Windows XP to Service Pack
II, which is why it is probable that it is responsible.
Rodney communicated:
It has actually been executed once or twice since the aforementioned
upgrade.
Rodney communicated:
Affirmative.
Rodney communicated:
Another individual who is substantially proficient at computers, more so
than I am, had informed me that he/she had experienced one of the same
anomalies with that version.
It probably would be helpful to determine and state the conditions under
which this happens. (i.e. Does this occur when one of the computers has
been powered down and/or rebooted?)
The description of "intermittent" was literal.
Rodney communicated:
Are you familiar with the "ping" command?
Affirmative. Why?
Rodney communicated:
From the "whenever", can we assume that this condition is permanent not
intermittent or is this included in the "intermittently:"?
The latter.
Rodney communicated:
Can we also assume that this is also something that once worked and now
does not?
This appears to have transpired since upgrading Windows XP to Service Pack
II, which is why it is probable that it is responsible.
Rodney communicated:
Additionally, have you checked the ICS (Internet connection sharing) setup
on your brothers computer to see if it still appears to be setup and
working correctly?
It has actually been executed once or twice since the aforementioned
upgrade.
Rodney communicated:
Can we also assume that his computer connects to the Internet without
problems?
Affirmative.
Rodney communicated:
Some people had issues with service pack 2, many of those were related to
them not having read suggested information prior to installing the SP.
