Nope, hasn't fixed it Anyone else have any suggestions?

didn't work for me either so tired of this mess

Hi Matt
Birdy gave you this link earler, you never said you followed it.
This link takes you to your router setup page, take your time read all info
and follow exactly, its so easy to miss 1 apply button,then it wont work.
Setting up a static IP first & apply is so important.

with all the ideas from everyone sooner or later one would have to work and it did for me the westel modum 's fire wall is set to the max lower one setting waited 5 minutes for the system to upgrade besides all the other ideas with java and lw the system isnow running fine
THANKS TO ALL who gave me these ideas to look at, and because I am not smart when iit comes to computers it did take a little to try all these ideas but to you folks great links to help walk us through it all

Hi Rex,
I'm so glad you didn't give up. It drives me Nuts when nothing seems to work.
That westel modem is it, modem/router or just plain modem ?
Peace.

wireless modem router and was a pain to get it to keep its settings the strange thing was there is another site we access for work related stuff it stopped working the same time as lw so we had two different systems down with two different ways to fix it and we ended up at the same problem the modum from westell!
glade there are so many people that could help because I'd given up a long time ago

Hi Rex.
You know we get more problems with modem/routers than anything els.
Just to amuse you, I through mine, that I paid £70 for, out on the front garden
Crazy maybe!! but it gave me sweet releaf at the time
Peace
