HALP!!! For some reason, I have a connection setup. My computer is not picking it up or accepting it. Its asking for freakin Dial-up.Anyway one know websites that can help me?
P.S. I am using my Brother's computer.


Is it wireless or wired?

Possible solution:

1.Go to "My Network Places"
2.Right-click and click "Properties"
3.Click "TCP/IP" from the scroll menu then hit the "Properties" button
4.Set the IP and DNS to automatic

That may fix it. I'm trying to remember those steps because I am using Vista and it is slightly different so please excuse any errors.

If I'm correct, he uses vista too. I'd say go with that, and if it doesn't work, make sure your wireless PCI card/wired PCI card is enabled.


OK, if you are using Vista...

start> control panel > Network and Sharing Center > Manage Network Connections > right-click Local Area Connection > properties > Internet protocol 4/6 > properties button > Set Obtain IP address + DNS Address to automatic.
