Server can't be found!

Posted: 05-02-2004, 11:22 PM
As anyone had a problem with XP Pro, that when you connect to the
internet via DSL you connect and all is well. after about 5 min you
get a message "can't find server or dns error"? This seems to have
started after doing a Windows Up date.I have checked for viruses,ran
spybot and adaware. The system will not let me do a SYSTEM RESTORE
back to an earler date either. Any ideas out there?

Have a static or dynamic IP?
Did you check your DNS settings in the Network control panel for your
network?
