help
I am trying to use my laptop at a relative's house. I can establish a connection to the router, over which other machines (like the one I am now on) can use the internet, but my machine's browser cannot retrieve material from the internet. A couple of times, briefly, just after re-establishing the connection with the wireless network, I can retrieve some of a page, but then it stops working. This makes me think that the problem is a setting on my laptop. I'm using XP. My Windows and McAfee firewalls are turned off. I'm running out of other ideas. My sanity over the next few days probably depends on the combination of internet access and alcohol. Help me if you can....
