Spotty internet connection
Internet trouble with one XP SP3 machine on a wired/wireless network with 5
machines (XP, Vista Biz, Vista Home, Win 7). This machine is wired to Belkin wireless router and has spotty internet connection. IE8 sluggish loading and running. Loading tabs sometimes take forever, sometimes takes no time at all. All other machines networked with each other and surfing the web without problems. I've narrowed the problem down to this machine because it behaves the same way if I bypass the router and connect it directly to the modem. I have/have tried: All recent XP updates Disabling Add ons Registry cleaner Resetting TCP/IP settings Optimizing TCP/IP settings with DrTCP WinSockFix LSP Fix Creating and setting registry keys: NegativeCacheTime NetFailureCacheTime NegativeSOACacheTime Uninstalling/reinstalling network adapters Testing each of two built in adapters Swapped out cables Swapped cables among different different router jacks Reset IE8 to defaults Ran MalwareBytes AVG Free Scan AdAware Spybot Incidentally, programs that update themselves aren't having any problem connecting to their servers Can anyone think of anything else I might check before I re-install an OS? Many thanks! Ripper |
