I cant connect to internet it always says cant find server. how do i know if my settings are on right?

Hi Mary,
Your Q. is not clear. I assume your internet is working but you cant connect to the local server on your network right? IF so please try restarting your router and see if it helps. Thanks .

If using windows,click "internet options" from the control panel screen.Then click "connections" tab. Click LAN stettings tab.Un-check "use proxy server" box

call ur server provider and ask him to send net settings

Open your Internet Explorer,
Go to Tools -> Internet Options -> Connections "Tab" -> LAN Settings -> Proxy server, uncheck the box -> OK

Restart your Browsers ie IE or Firefox, you don't need the proxy server if your are a home users.

Hope it helps.

To connect to the internet from your mobile phone, it is absolutely necesary to have a data plan activated since the connection from your phone is not the same as from you PC. The pc connects mostly trough a ground internet connection where you phone connects firstly to a signal router(usually big antenas on top of smaller buildings)and after that it goes to a server. From this server,your info goes to a sattelite,thus meaning that your operator is involved in a lot of costs. To activate data plan you should call your operator,ask for activartion on your number and ask them to send you connectivity settings(in the case of the Phone in the picture ask for gprs/edge settings).After that,you can connect freely to any web page in the limit of your data plan or in the limit of you pocket. Free games can be downloaded from www.sharemobile.ro wap.waptrick.ro

in your dial up connections check your settings for internet server connections. some inproper servers did not connect to the dsl due to that only the problem reveals in the game server

Most of DSL modems are connected to PC with USB cable...
n if ur server is connected with other pc on lan .. you can use internet sharing option available in winxp.

Following are the steps to enable Internetsharing for other pcs.


How to use Internet Connection Sharing loadTOCNode(2, 'summary'); To use Internet Connection Sharing to share your Internet connection, the host computer must have one network adapter that is configured to connect to the internal network, and one network adapter or modem that is configured to connect to the Internet.
