  1. Whenever I turn on my laptop, I can wirelessly connect to the router, but not to the internet. I only get internet connectivity after I reset the router. It then stays connected until I turn off the laptop. OS: Windows 7 Router: TG585 v8
  2. Never mind, I've solvved the problem. I plugged in my new monitor without restarting my computer, so the computer thought it was still plugged into the previous monitor. Now I've restarted it, it's set itself to the monitor's natural resolution, which is the highest available. Heh... can't believe I forgot something so basic. Thanks anyway Jelly Bean.
  3. I have just received a new monitor. Manufacturer: Asus. Model: VH242H. According to the documents, its 'True Resolution' is 1920 x 1080. However, when I try to set my computer display to this resolution, the screen turns black, and a small box appears reading 'OUT OF RANGE'. I can currently set my display to 1280x1024, or 1600x900. However neither of these work particularly well. My computer is connected to the monitor via a VGA cable that was included with the monitor. How can I get the display to the monitor's true resolution?
  4. Already run the uninstaller, and removed any traces of nortton and symantec from my computer. Since symantec seemed to be causing the connection problems, that should fix it. I checked somewhere else about this, and apparently the disconnect maght be caused by IP number switching, and that I could reserve one, or something. I don't have the foggiest idea what that means though... Since I've got rid of Nortton, I guess I'll need a new antivirus software. I know I can download them for free (the only reason I had nortton was because my parents installed it), but does anyone have any suggestions as to which particular one?
  5. Thanks, I'll do that. I cant really check if it works though, since the connection cuts out randomly and sometimes it doesnt happen for days.
  6. I think Symantec makes Norton Antivirus, which I currently have installed on my computer. I've been playing around with it for 20 mins, but I havent found anything like a Symantec IPS providy policy. I dont even know what that means.
  7. Computer Model: Inspiron 530S Manufacturer: Dell Operating System: Windows Vista Home Premium I am having a problem with my wireless internet connection. When I start the computer, it works fine, the connection is good. Sometimes the connection will suddenly cut out. This might happen after a few minutes or several hours. I still seem to be connected to the wireless router, but not to the internet. When I attempt to diagnose through the network connection program that came with the OP, I get the following message: ""Windows has confirmed that 'Primary DNS Server' is currently online, but is not responding to connection attempts at this time. This usually means a firewall is running between the two computers and is blocking 'domain'. Windows firewall is configured to allow this connection. A remote firewall may be blocking the connection. The following policy may need to be adjusted: Policy Provider: Symantec IPS Provider Filter Name: Symantec Outbound Connect V4 Callout"" If I remove the wireless adaptor and replace, I get the following message: ""There may be a problem with one or more network adaptors on this computer."" If I turn off the modem and the wireless adaptor, then plug them both back in, I get either the same message or this one: ""A problem with your network router or broadband modem might be preventing an internet connection."" Either way, I seem to be able to connect to the wireless router, but not to the internet. The only thing that solves this problem is restarting my computer. My wireless adaptor is an Edimax Wireless LAN (I think). It has Sweex written on the side. The router/modem is a Sky broadband netgear.
