Hi

This seems to be a config problem.

 

So if you do 3 pings, and post the results please...

The adapter...

C:\>ping 127.0.0.1

Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),

The GateWay (mine is 192.168.0.1 but some are 192.168.1.1)

C:\>ping 192.168.0.1
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),

 

Finally the Internet Beacon...

C:\>ping 13.107.4.52

Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),

 

The GateWay address and then DNS Server numbers are also important....

C:\>ipconfig -all
