I have the above mentioned ADSL modem installed. I started having problems a few days ago where it could not connect to my accounts when I enter the details into the modem and also not by dialing it from Windows. When dialing it from Windows it would stop at connecting through the WAN miniport and never went further.
Today I took the modem with me to the office, connected it up and it connected to the accounts no problem (the internet light on the modem came on) with the details entered into the modem, but I still could not open any webpages. I could connect to the same account by dialing it through Windows though and all pages loaded fine.
So I took it back home and still had the original problems, so I phoned Telkom and had them reset my line. After that it behaved exactly as it did at work, i.e. the internet light would come on, but it wouldn't load any pages without dialing it again through Windows first.
I just re-installed Windows, but it was doing this from before that.
What on earth could be the problem?
