RE: [OT] (No) Internet Access using a WAP

["Harry Hendriks" <hja_hendriks@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
I encounter the same problem, since I installed XP SP2 update on my main PC
some days ago.
After starting up the main PC, it sometimes appears that the Internet
connection is not there.
The wireless LAN in my home keeps working fine; I can see the other 2
computers on my network and work with them. They also cannot reach the
Internet in that situation.

However, after a complete restart of the router, the ADSL modem (and the
main PC) everything (including the Internet) works fine again. But how for
long?
In the XP setting I have switched off the Microsoft firewall, because I use
my own one (KERIO). This should be OK.
Any Ideas to solve this mistery?
With kind greetings
Harry Hendriks
