Purrrfect! Exactly what I was looking for. .

distro? I'm not using a distro. Doing it manual. I'm nuts huh? I gotta quit blocking with my face.

Is there a template for setting up a network? This is probably in the wrong place?

Are there any? Do you all want links to you or no?

I mean stumbled too. I think my gray matter is dribbling outta my ears. I set up a network with my desktop and my laptop. Speeds could be better. A whole lot better then a few days ago when I was running as fast almost as dialup. Laptop I have some work to do yet to get it cruising close to speeds it should be. Then I have to figger out the other side of the boot on the laptop which is Linux. I made the mistake of downloading the latest OS and it's not good. ....Slowly working through one cluster fork at a time..... ================================================== :::..

Here is the ping. From these results can anyone tell if it's a config problem or a D-Link/Nic failing? Or ? Does anyone have a link to a tute with screen shots for setting up a DSL network? I use my laptop with this router.

Thanks for your help. Try it again.

command prompt ipconfig / all screen shot. Hope I'm doing this attachment right? Please contact mudmanc4 by PM regarding your attachment

Appreciated. I have been using these programs/methods to do these tasks. adAware, spybot, O and O defrag, Avast, comodo, Firefox, thunderbird mail client. I cleaned up and out over 600 junk temp files yesterday. I have 2 registery errors for some silly garden site that I haven't gotten resolved and may not. I have 6 files that keep re-inventing themselves they are temp files and Thumbs.db files. I do avast boot scan once a week. I use Crapcleaner now called The Cleaner I guess all the time. At the moment I have O and O defrag doing a defrag on boot. Is there a test to show what my DSL connections are and if they need to be corrected? Is there a test to see if my d-link NIC is going down for the count?

My desktop took a nose dive. My tech that built my desktop for me thinks it's the Nic going down. What I have. Desktop pc XP OS Verizon DSL D-link to cheesey verizon router. I use firefox browser thunderbird mail client I have hijack this Also windoctor and I forget the name but it starts with a Ka-something? I'm looking for a education and some help. It started out,..... coming home to find my SO let a friend in my den to wait for me. When I walked in he was messing with my desktop and his Ipod. I was/am still not happy about this at all. The PC was running like a slug. Not getting better yet. These results are with avast and comodo OFF. I also did command prompt for yahoo it couldn't find it. A few other command prompts I have a screen shot of. Not familiar with the forum yet. To know if you do attachments or outside hosted images. If there is a screen shot tute on setting up DSL that would be great. I learn the best with visuals. Here are the grim test results. :::..

Came here looking for an education and some help. I'll post my grim speed results in the proper forum. Thanks for being here. I'm sure many have found knowledge and cures to their connection woes. Josh Long Beach CA USA
