Connected to network, browser, mail fail
My mother-in-law visited us today to take computer lessons from my son.
Her Win 7 - 32 bit Sony Vaio connected simply to our home Wifi network, but we were unable to produce a web page in Firefox, IE8 or Chrome. Her mail client Thunderbird was not able to connect to the server. What did work, was Skype.
We deactivated the firewall, to no avail. We looked at the AVG-settings, etc.
When my mother-in-law returned to her home and connected to her own network, everything worked again.
Does anyone have a clou? Next computer lesson in 1 week!
