Strange Problem

[jamie_aero]

I don't know if any of you have come across this before, but here goes:

Just got my telewest blueyonder broadband working in a generic ebuyer cheap dsl router. The connection seems to be fine, i can use messenger and download stuff uninterupted, however every computer on the network has the same problem when browsing the web. You can start up internet explorer or mozilla and browse a few webpages, then all of a sudden it doesn't work anymore as if the internet is down, however downloads/messenger still works. It works again in a few minutes, or if you change settings on the router (which in turns interrupts downloads). Anybody have any ideas?

Thanks

Jamie

have you set your router to allow certain IP addresses through?
do not put a range, and if it is a wireless router do not let it have wireless on, if the network is all wired. this will secure your router and network better.

find your IP addresses from the command prompt
