fdh Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 like I'm on top of the world right now! :hi: After 3.5 hours of trying to fix my wireless card i found the issue and fixed it. Included is a list of remaining issues that maybe one of ya'll can alleviate/give advice: -System Update has been discontinued by Lenovo; supposed to go to lenovo.com and dl driver updates manually via driver matrices; driver matrices' links are invalid -ISP is the shitz. (PavlovMedia)...couple of problems.... 1) Used to have 7mb/s internet, got bumped down to shared internet b/c of a new registration method (less than 1.5 mb/s). 2) DNS cache is teh poo.... hellsgamers.com won't even ping to.... anything in the quantum-host nameservers will not connect. Tried circumventing with OpenDNS server addresses. After a very unproductive support chat w/ a guy named Carl, i was told that my registration account was different from my computer. We registered via Name and MAC address. They said my MAC address was different. The guy updated it for me and told me to restart...i restarted...the mac address he put in didn't match the one in my ipconfig /all. I was like wtf and changed it too. Still no luck. Tried going back to OpenDNS but it doesn't help either Halp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RetiredTacos Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Don't post then. If you have no helpful information, there is no reason to post.:doof: SAME GOES FOR YOU fa**** Did you check your tcp/ip settings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fdh Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 SAME GOES FOR YOU fa**** Did you check your tcp/ip settings? Yes, they all seemed fine. My ISP told me to deselect IPv6, but crothers says its necessary for Vista communication with itself. Either way it didn't help my case.

vandium Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Tried Blah, tech support must not be useful at all. So you did a release/renew AFTER you changed your MAC address? You can connect to the internet? Just not Hellsgamers? I think the conficker is showing you what it can really do! And it can do anything he wants! :cry: Double check all your wireless settings as well. You probably have a firewall that has you locked to the bone. Or you are stupid..

vandium Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Well sorta....I got banned from the web box because steven thinks i'm a cyber terrorist playing dumb because he toasted it one morning and blamed it on me and took my reseller login info away and i tried to login 5 times unsuccessfully and it banned me so I asked Steven if I was banned and he said no because he must not have checked or bypassed my name by accident, so a new IP fixed it. How's that for a sentence? I don't think any of it was an accident. Crothers pwnt your ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
