Go look in your own router gateway Prob123, How do I do that? *hides head in shame of ignorance.*
find that catch phrase funny? *hums Gimme a break of that kitkat bar.
Go look in your own router gateway
That rather assumes Prob has a local network - if it's just one PC and a modem, there won't be a router to tinker with.

Here is the IP address 192.168.0.9. I really thought guest nine had multiple personality disorder. I feel better knowing it is more than one person!

Under the heading of can't get a break. I still can not get < br > or any other method, to make a line break. I managed to get color to work. but not a line break.

Gimmie a break! Do you have to be old like me to find that catch phrase funny? Oh well, sorry Prob123. Maybe next month I'll send the prof some more money if I have it. I am afraid to fix certain thing yet because I don't think he is done fixing things. You may have to wait a bit too.
Thanks for confirming the IP address. Yep, that's an internal IP number. I actually went into my own router and checked the ranges I use in my own home network (which are not the same, but I could check a box and then start forcing my laptop to match Guest9 if it struck my fancy). Go look in your own router gateway Prob123, and see what you see. The default IP is usually 192.168.1.1 or 172.16.0.1 (I just looked those up). You should look around and see how you have things set up in case you ever need to open a port for a game or change your security settings or something. I know nothing about computers and I still look into things like that just to see how it works. You may even meet Guest 9

Irina, if you're here... will you please check your email? My replies don't seem to get through again. Thanks.

Hmmm... it's nice to understand this and to know that Guest9 is indeed several people, but isn't this going to mess up our 'inner life'? "Irina Khalidar" will identify the shy, sensitive, civilized, feminist Guest9 who discusses genetics and says, "Oh, we don't have to go any further if you don't want!" with the Guest9 who says, without any preparation or encouragement, "I ram my huge c*** into your c***. You scream with pleasure."

Here's a weird thing: on my laptop (also with Firefox browser, same plugins) if a user sends a PF IM to me it's normal and I have a send button for a reply but for the past 2 days on my main desktop I guess pop ups and a reply box, but no send button. Hitting return after typing a message does not work. Both browsers whitelist this site and allow popups from the PF. The only differences are things that shouldn't matter (the desktop network is set for OpenDNS and the browser on the desk top has a few Greasemonkey scripts I pasted in that make cosmetic changes to igoogle and gmail).
Maybe it isn't even a matter of the computer of browser and it's just timing. I couldn't answer at the same time Pub Drought had issues. ????

Yes, I've been assuming that Prob has at least a home "gateway" with DSL or some equal level of Internet access (by me, AT&T shipped free 2Wire home portals with every DSL order so almost everyone has a router/firewall/modem gateway whether they have a "network" or not). I am not sure what choices you have in Canada you have, Prob, but if you're on the Internet all the time you have a firewall and a gateway of some kind, right? Or do you just hook your computer directly up to a modem?
If you do have a router, you should be able to open your browser and type in the IP of the gateway (or with 2wire you can type in http://homeportal). If you use a modem and dial in, bless you. I would never have the patience to be here if I did not have DSL (those with satellite or cable surely connect through some gateway?). I'll admit again I am not a tech person. I just point and click until I get what I want.

I have an old Canadian made cicero computer with a dial up conection that is lucky to get 28.5Kbps, usually it runs around 26. Out here in the country we have no choices..ha ha. Telus says we may have high speed dial up in about three years or more. We could get sat. but it cuts out every min or so..it drives you nuts on the TV. I can't picture having the net crash that often!

Oh my! Don't go looking for a router then *turns red*. Can't you get a cable package?

Cable companies aren't to happy about laying 200 to 1000 kilometers of cable for two or three houses.
