Strange things with neighbours laptop

Recommended Posts

Neighbour asked me to look at her laptop as it was running slowly and getting pop ups ,i cleaned up the mess and took it to her place.

Ran fine ,connected and downloaded fine ,ran windows update fine so left it as fixed.

Next day she said it wouldnt connect to her mail.

 

Strangely she was right ,my playbook connected straight up with her hub and onto the web so the hubs fine.

Her laptop works fine at my place ,put my old hub in her place nothing it gets a dns error ,my playbook runs fine on my old hub so theres a problem at her end ,cant be the old hub as my playbook works ,cant be my old hub as my playbook works fine ,its not her wireless connection on the laptop that works fine at my place ?

So its a problem with her laptop only at her place ,definitely a dns error ,how do i get her pc to start afresh ,tried disabling the wireless then enabling it but still it wont connect ?

 

Looking at the network connections page all looks fine until you look at the advanced setup and the green lines are broken from the laptop to the hub (fine at my place) ,windows just says its a dns problem but cannot fix it

Believe NOTHING anyones says or writes unless you witness it yourself and even then your eyes can deceive you

None of this "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" crap it just means i have at least two enemies!

 

There is only one opinion i listen to ,its mine and its ALWAYS right even when its wrong

 

Its far easier to curse the darkness than light one candle

 

Mathew 4:19

Grangers law : anything i say will  turn out the opposite or not happen at all!
