First, make sure the Gateway address is correct on the system. &nbsp;Then, DNS... &nbsp;You can also ck by opening a browser window and typing the IP Address instead of the URL... &nbsp;For instance, 64.233.167.104 is the Google Main Search page... so try that on the Address line and see if it brings back the Google Search page. &nbsp;If it does, then you have a DNS issue here..<br />

Hi,<br />
<br />
My client has AOL dialup on a Win XP laptop. He's never used DSL. I took his computer home where I have a Linksys wireless router and Earthlink DSL. <br />
<br />
I plugged in a network cable from the laptop to the router. (not trying to go wireless).<br />
<br />
I changed the AOL so it is no longer the default connection.<br />
<br />
When I go to &quot;Show all connections&quot; and click on a connection under &quot;Lan or High-Speed Internet,&quot; &nbsp;it says the speed is<br />
100.0 Mbps and says the laptop is connected and gives the amount of time it's been connected.<br />
<br />
I can't get to a website. I get Error 404s.<br />
<br />
What am I doing wrongt? Are there settings I have to change?<br />
<br />
Thanks.<br />
<br />

Getting a Win XP computer with AOL dialup to connect to my DSL router

The term broadband commonly refers to high-speed Internet access that is always on and faster than the traditional dial-up access. Broadband includes several high-speed transmission technologies such as digital subscriber line (DSL), cable, fiber optics, wireless (for which there is a separate topic), satellite and broadband over powerlines (BPL).
