Strange characters in Ping. Please Help
I cannot dial up to the internet, I can connect but I
can't ping any public addresses. When I use ping 127.0.0.1, it pings ok but at the end the ping message says 'Ping statistics for ' followed by some ASCII characters. I am hoping this is a clue to my problem. If there is not an answer, is there a way to just re- install the entire Networking portion if Windows? Thanks |

Broadband (cable/DSL)? Satellite? From your computer to your ISP (Internet Service Provider), just exactly what is in the path between the two of you to get Internet access? Sounds more like you cannot connect to your ISP's DNS server to get the IP addresses (which computers actually use) for IP names (which are only for ease of use by humans). Do you have a firewall running (software or hardware)? Tried disabling or bypassing it yet? Had a user that found PC-Cillin's firewall was causing problems (see Google Groups message at http://snipurl.com/62kp). -- __________________________________________________ __________ *** Post replies to newsgroup.
