Windows XP SP2 ; My connection no longer works

[Pierre]

Hello,

I've installed SP2 and then my connection was no longer
working. Had to restore to a previous point to make it
working again. Is there a way to fix this?

Regards.

I always expect the unexpected.

Could be a problem with any 3rd party firewall progs you are running.
Diasble those and just run SP2 firewall until you can update your 3rd party
stuff. That is the most common cure I am finding at the SP2 support centre.

Also try running netsh winsock reset from the tun command once sp2 is
installed.
