    Use this instruction page for setting up your email via your ISP: http://support.onetel.co.uk/index.php?page=175

    Mine is set up exactly as that....

    when I unplug my wireless adsl router and ethernet and plug back in my adsl modem and usb connector it works, when i go ethernet-new router it doesn,t... get the following error...

    The server responded with an error. Account: 'pop.onetel.net', Server: 'pop.onetel.net', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR AVG POP3 Proxy Server: Cannot connect to the mail server!', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC90

    Everything else about my internet and what i access works a treat

    It's your AVG anti-virus e-mail scanner that's causing the problem.

    Go to avg email scanner properties. In the Personal email scanner plugin - click the properties button to take you to the setup page. There is a Network Connection box which probably has your old dial up listed. Change it to LAN.

    :cool:
