Hi all, as stated in the subject I can't load any web page.
there is a short exchange of data that allows me to see the name of the websites in the explorer tab but the page, any web page, doesn't load.
This happened since when i changed the contract and i started using his voip service for regular phone calls.
I tried with an old adsl modem and experience the same problem.
Note that p2p programs as well as programs such as skype and netmeeting do work well (actually netmeeting conenctions don't last long) but even IE(ver. 6) detects probelms witht he http and ftp traffic when I select the "Diagnose Connection Problems "Tools" menu voice.
Any help woudl be appreciated.Note that there si no hw or sw firewall, the modem/router (tp link) has been configured with no port blocked and i tried all sort of dns settings. thanks in advance for your help.
BTW I am using tiscali as provider and I am located in Cagliari, Italy
Try to check your connection without the router , if the connection works fine without the router then we can assume the problem is in the router side then try to reset the setting and reconfigure it again dont forget to cal you ISP for the settings that you need to set on your router. If your getting the same problem without the router i suggest mavigozler option this will clear all the temporary internet file folder.
ask you isp to do a line test they can check if theres a problem with line or the modem. try to use a different modem to make sure no problem on you device.

Thanks everyone, let em add some more info.
In the past i tried to change the dns in every possible way both in the connection and in the router.
I brought the pc to another house and with another connection (with the same provider) everything worked fine.
Also i use my EEEpc in the home connection and experienced the same problem.
Therefore I can affirm that there is no problem with the ethernet card the router uses, no port is blocked, no probelm with the router in itself since I experience the same problem when I use an old usb adsl modem, and no probelm with the pc.
I used only IE6 so one thing i need to try is another browser but I didn't have it at that time.
Since years I have spybot search and destroy as well as ccleaner that cleans temporary files every time I start the pc.
There is also an old version of Norton Anti virus which has expired but AVG has been installed and several scans found nothing in the machine.
One thing i will try today is using mozilla and setting opendns server settings.
Thanks for your help,
P.
Does this happen when you use another kind of browser like Firefox?
One of the problems with browsers (HTTP clients) is that they have a cache that creates problems. If you are using IE7, from the Tools menu, select Delete Browsing History and then delete temporary Internet files, the history, and possibly cookies. Make sure that you have enough free disk space as well, at least 10-15% of your hard drive.
