outlook intermittent internet access
I have a friend with a ASUS A7SV laptop running vista with sp1 that has an
unreliable internet connection when using email, and occasionally with internet explorer. Sometimes the dsl ethernet connected modem fails to respond to a ping but after sometime will. The problem usually is that internet explorer is accessing the internet ok but outlook email will not work, with the message that the email server cannot be found. modem is a new netgear but do not have model number. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi dick, Well there are lots of things he needs to check. 1. Check the windows Firewall whether its blocking smtp or pop3 2. if you have any other 3rd party firewalls check where they allow smtp and pop3 to pass through. 3. Makre sure you have configured you mail settings properly. Since some mail servers use different ports and settings. Hope this Helps Cheers !! -- john_cena -Shihan Sylvester Pietersz- -(MCP,MCSA,MCSE+Security,MCSE+Messeging- -MCTS,MCITP)- -Systems -::-Engineer / Consultant Trainer- ::
