Hi there, on my mum's laptop it came up with a message saying it had blocked IP: 192.168.X.X and now her wireless connection is no longer online? This happened right after installed the service pack 3 for XP. And now the connection when you hover over it says "limited or no connection" where as before installing service pack 3 it was fine for years.
It said it had blocked it because it felt it was a threat and seemed like a port scanner! But when I checked on my PC it was my IP.
And I found a section in her windows XP firewall settings where you can add IP and ports, so I tried adding my IP in but dont know what port to use or even if am doing the right thing?
Please help, thanks in advance!
