I'm having a similar problem with my work laptop and FIOS. I hooked the laptop to the router through an Ethernet cable. It appears on the Verizon router. I switched both the router and the laptop to OPENDNS and still no dice. I tried to set up a new network connection and that didn't work either. -- John Duncan Yoyo -------------------------------o) ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
