Hi,
I installed XP pro w/sp2 yesterday, and it was all great.
But problems came today. I came back from univ. to find
that I wasn't able to browse any web, and my msn was dawn
also. I tried using ping on many sites, but got "request
timed out" many times (75% loss almost all the time, if
not, 100%). I'm always rebooting the system so as to be
able to surf the web again. The weird thing is I have p2p
programs running 24/7 and they keep on transfering files
without getting disconnected. Obviously I have internet
access.
When I do have access to webs, the connection is REALLY
slow (Cable 512k). Xp firewall is disabled, I'm using
Norton Internet Security professional 2004 instead.
I know this "time out" thing is very common.. but even
though I searched for several mins, I could not find
anything that could be of help.
Thx in advance.
