    Ip address . . 192.168.0.6
    Subnet mask. . .255.255.255.0
    Default gate . . . 192.168.0.1


    Got the page up on pc posted log & submitted and it went again. It now says the page is loaded but the page is completely blank with just the tab as normal & done at the bottom.

    Keep losing wifi too, don't know if it's related.

    How do I tell if firefox is working?

    My brain has given up now & I want to scream!

    you launch firefox, and see if you can get on the net.

    4th time of asking, how is it connected to the router - wired ethernet, wireless, usb?

    mse is having problems atm, do other sites work in IE or firefox?
