Laptop and IE probs.

Miss_Moneypenny

:mad:
I wonder if anyone can help me? Have received my new laptop from dell and set up the Netgear wireless router. Laptop recognises the wireless connection so I thought that I was home and dry! However I can access my BB silver from aol browser window but not from the Internet Explorer window, slow to download - never gets there, not responding etc, etc. I also cannot submit mcafee product details (90 day trial) press submit and nothing, could this be connected to IE issues?

I can't help thinking that I have not set up something really obvious here! but I have already spent all day trying to sort it and cannot get to the bottom of it.

Any ideas?

Thanks in anticipation

(was going to try and set up file sharing with the desktop, but one headache today is enough)

I don't think this answers your specific question, but AOL may need a smaller mtu..
