I have a networking problem with one of my computers.
The post describing the problem is here.
Do you see any solution?

 

[Rudy Toody]

Have you tried the traceroute as described on the other post?

Sometimes the router can have issues with DHCP and fixed IPs conflicting. Generally, this occurs on the OS side after an update (or registry cleaning).

Peter,
Have you tried the flush DNS command.
At the command prompt, run as administrator.
ipconfig /flushdns (there is a space after ipconfig)

This worked for me a while back although I had to do this several times before the issue went away.

BOINC and browsers both use "Port 80" whereas, I think, the other network functions which are working, use other Ports?

If so, I suggest you install an HTTP proxy, such as Polipo (Windows binary), on another computer. Then you can route all your port 80 stuff through that proxy on that other computer.

Thanks for all the suggestions.
Sorry to say, none hes fixed the problem. Please check the thread in networking (see OP) for more details.

Hmm, my wife need her computer ... I have posted some minutes ago ...

... I will other wise have to use the main part of saturday to re-install windows and the programs ... and one can better use one's time on an sunny, warm and calm autumn day ...

If it comes down to the above:
1. Could you do "System Recovery"?
2. If not how about a quicker "Install Repair" or something like that?

The above should not require re-installing all other software.

Found this here. Some of these commands have been suggested by others already.

ipconfig /flushdns
nbtstat -R
nbtstat -RR
netsh int reset resetlog.txt
netsh int ip reset
netsh winsock reset

LoL! Nice!

Still no success.

I'm responding in the other thread too, but have you tried setting the network connection to DHCP? It appears in the other thread that you have it set to static currently(but I could be missing where you set it to obtain automatically)

If you can manage to get some kind of remote access setup(Ammyy, Teamviewer, RDP, etc.) as a very last ditch effort I'd be happy to get connected into your system and take a look at the issue. Often even if you can't access the internet RDP will work(we've had issues at customer sites where IP conflicts and other issues cause only IPV6 to communicate and the only way we could get connected was through RDP). If you'd rather reformat than have a random person on the internet connected to your machine, though, I fully understand!

Let me know if you've tried DHCP, though, and I may have some other ideas after that(without needing to connect to your machine!)

Thanks, Icecold for your offer. But now the week end is over and I have to get the computer connected befor monday morning ... in two or three hours I'll start.


I think it is time to reformat and reinstall. Please see - if you are interested - my most recent post in the other forum (link in OP).
Thanks for all help!

What about ad blocking. Maybe, there is a wildcard block that prevents everything from displaying?

 

[petrusbroder]

Would that affect BOINC? I doubt that ... considering there are no ads in BOINC!
But: I'll try!

 

[petrusbroder]

OK, the boot disk is reformatted, Win 7 reinstalled, drivers reinstalled, IE working well. Now all updates, all programs and add-ons ... this will be a long process.
Thanks for all suggestions. I appreciate all your efforts.
