Re: HELP~~ Earthlink/Barricade Router & WinME
I think I know what the problem is, the DNS being shown by both the router and the computer are your old DNS for DirecTV DSL, which is almost certainly why DNS resolution isn't working. Check the router's setting to see if DNS is set manually, look around carefully, you might have to change back to static temporarily and change it, but you want the router to get it's DNS automatically (through PPPoE), the first step is to get the router showing the correct DNS, which I believe for your type of connection should start with 4.2.2. Once you get that showing properly, then release and renew your computer's IP, which should then show the same as the router, at that point, it should start working. |

We are very fortunate to have him as our host. Not only is he very knowledgeable, he does a great job moderating our forum. Very unintrusive, but knows when to step in there when things get out of hand. |
