Internet problem

[andyp]

I am having problems connecting to the internet at home. When trying to access the internet, a page appears saying page can not be found. I have tried several different sites!

I have checked to ensure all the wires are connected and they are. I am on broadband, could it just be that my broadband is down in my area?

Anybody got any suggestions please? (im not very good with I.T :) )

Andy, been having problems with Proxy's, having to switch to different ones regularly, BTW I'm on NT-Hell, can give you a list if you are on the same.

Could be that your provider is not providing :doh

Try another computer, that'll prove if it's your comp or the ISP.
