Hi there everyone

I have had a problem with Win2000 AS. Once installed, AD also installed, I have tried on numerous occations to connect to the internet through DIAL-UP.

The DIAL-UP connection will connect, give me a connection speed and thenwill not browse at all. I am able, however, to PING any IP address on the internet, even the FQDN's of websites. Pinging seems not to be a problem and thus I am convinced that DNS (done by my ISP) is set up correctly (correct assumption?) Can Ping IP and WWW address.

The first time I have re-installed AS to find the problem solved. This time, on a new machine, fresh installation od Win2000 AS, I have the same problem.

Have anyone had such a problem? By the way, I have IE5.5 with the latest SP installed, Win2000 SP2 is also installed. I do run Windows Updates on a regular basis and install the necessary patches etc

Thank you for your time

In the properties for your dialup account, have you tried looking at the DNS and IP setings for your ISP and checking with them to see if they are set correctly. If not, it can cause problems. If it is an auto setup for your ISP, dont naturally assume that they are right.

Checked with them,,, they have been out here as well trying to help and even they couldn't find the problem.
