Local Versus Local and Intenet
Actulally I have no problem with internet connecting to the internet,
browsing and everything. My internet connection is the all the time. My confusion is over the task bar icon. For a few minute it indicates that I am connected to Local and Internet and the next minute it indicates that I am connected to Local only. Is there any differnce between the two? Anything I should worry about? My PC connected to the DSL modem thru network cable.

Local Versus Local and Intenet
Windows is sometimes slow to detect whether or not the default route
to the internet works or not... That's why you get Local from time to time.. --- Jeffrey Randow Windows Networking MVP 2001-2006 http://www.networkblog.net On Fri, 19 Oct 2007 12:04:04 -0700, Eric Euy wrote: Actulally I have no problem with internet connecting to the internet, browsing and everything.

Local Versus Local and Intenet
Thank you for the information. So nothing to worry about then as long as I
have the connection. It's just that I saw many postings similar to mine except that they have problem with the internet connection as well. Or is it because they connect wirelessly? Again, thanks.

I've seen it on my systems and some of others I have known and it
hasn't been an issue. For our case, the general cause of the problem is a long latency/ping time to the internet... --- Jeffrey Randow Windows Networking MVP 2001-2006 http://www.networkblog.net On Sat, 20 Oct 2007 09:06:01 -0700, Eric Euy wrote: Thank you for the information.
