Just type "ping 213.40.20.2" into command prompt and hit enter. You should be familiar with how to ping addresses since you said you tried to in the first post.

yeah but instead of doing it myself some guy suggested a .bat to me and it automatically did it for me.. anyway, i pinged 213.40.20.2 and it says

Packets sent = , Recieved = 4. Lost = 0

"If you compare the "ipconfig /all" output from the desktop and laptop, do they look the same or is there a difference other than IP address?"
The DNS is different, everything else is the same.
DNS on lappy = 10.1.1.1
DNS on problematic pc - 93.188.166.133

thx

Quote from senn :

what version of LFS are you running?

I am running the 0.5Z28 Patch at the moment.

"This sounds like a problem with the DNS to me. Could you run "Start>Run>cmd>ipconfig /all" both on the desktop and PC and post the results? Am I correct assuming that your PC and laptop are connected via a wireless router?"

"Have you tried pinging "213.40.20.2" (the IP to which master.liveforspeed.net resolves) directly? "

how? lol :P

I will answer back to your replys in a couple of hours.. i need to get some sleep :P Thanks alot for all your help so far people.

Quote from MadCatX :

How is that problematic PC connected to the Internet? Are there any other sites you have problems connecting to?

my desktop pc (the troubled one) is connected through a wired connection.
the lappy im on is wireless, And i can run every single site exept for LFS.

Quote from amp88 :

Simple question...is the Internet working on your machine (can you ping or visit other websites successfully)?

lol true, yeah its working and i have been using it for the past weeks.. (msn myspace facebook) y'know :P

I have come across some weird problem that i can find no one else has...
I CAN run lfs, I CANNOT play multiplayer (all i play)
I CANNOT get onto Lfs.net/Lfsforums.net (Im on my lappy)
Its REALLY confusing.. About 3 - 4 weeks ago i couldnt get on and it says - Cannot Connect To Master Server. So i thought okay ill check forums.. then i cant even get on any lfs site.. (says error connecting to webpage)

[Oh and im on the same I.P on my lappy as my desktop(obviously)]

Things ive tried to fix -
-Turned AV off (same a.v as the lappy im using now..)
-Turned Firewall off
-Rebooted several times
-Searched several posts/threads about fixing "master server problem"
but its like i have one of a kind...

I read the thread that says u need to post your ping etc.. so i did it on the comp that its not working on and it just comes up with, "Ping request could not find host master.liveforspeed.net. Please check the name and try again. Unable to resolve target system name master.liveforspeed.net"

Any help? ive already asked this on Yahoo Answers and.. no answers..

Pleeaasee ??
