Quick but perplexing problem:

I enjoy reading the webcomic Achewood, but I'm being thwarted. From my home wireless connection (cable internet w/ a linksys wireless router for the house) I cannot view any of the strips. From the main site they are hyperlinked to a disscussion and archive area, but it's all the same and I've always been able to view them with zero trouble. I use Internet Explorer and have the latest version (7, I think).

At first I thought the site was down, but upon using a different connection (I use both a laptop and a desktop computer; the laptop is obviously used with several wifi connections) I found it all worked fine. Even now I can switch connections with my neighbor, and I can view the site. Anytime I use MY wireless, I can't view the comic strips.

I CAN go to the site, but I get a "red x" where the image usually is. When I try to get into the archive or discussion areas, I get a "page unable to be displayed" etc. Fiddling with internet options and following various "red x" tips has not helped.

I feel like I'm posting petty details, but it's a real melon-scratcher as far as I'm concerend. Any ideas, suggestions?

That's what I thought, too. However, messing with security settings and programs didn't help. However, I have solved this problem by reseting and reconfiguring my wireless router. I no longer expereince the problem.

I do wonder why the router would affect the desktop, as the desktop is connected to the wired modem, but as long as the trouble doesn't start again, I shan't think about it.

Thanks, Ax238

Glad you were able to get things sorted out.
