Internet Explorer/internet connect shareing

maximillian · 01-31-2006, 11:42 PM

I am having a problem with 2 computers which share the internet connection via a third computer. - wireless - both of these computers see the internet connection via the third computer and when i look at the statuus of the connection both of them are receiving the internet packets/information - but when i click on internet explorer i get a dns page error - the only page that works is the main google main page.

all the configurations are set to obtain the ip and dns address from the isp automatically - this has been getting on my nerves for some weeks -

ive tried spyware and virus scan and reinstalled windows thinking that the winsock may have been corrupted but to no avail

is your IE security settings set too high? and what version of IE do you have?
tools>internet options

try it. maybe this will help also.

You need to run the network setup wizard. (If you haven't already)
