Strange Connectivity Problems
Good Morning. I can get onto the internet thru IE9, but other browsers and facilities are not working. I am running windows XP on a desktop and a Netgear modem/router. The router is OK and I can connect to the internet with it, wirelessly, for my laptop and my i pod; the desktop uses an ethernet cable.
AOL (my ISP) cannot connect to the internet, Google Chrome cannot either and when I try to update my TOMTOM I am told that the server has "Refused the connection" and the same for Chrome. I have rebooted the router which works OK, I have done a system restore, back to 8th June and my firewall is off, for the moment. This leaves me at the limit of my analytical powers. I have used Network diagnostics which tells me that my network adapter is OK. I am getting by but my access is restricted, any ideas would be welcome. Thank you.
