Hi guys,

I have around 13 computers on a LAN/WAN network. All PC's are connected to a router then to a 1mb Internet line.

Problem is:

Every second page I visit gives me a "Page cannot be found" error. Now, if I refresh a couple of times it eventually loads the page. Secondly, one some sites, mostly local or when people don't put full address in (Sometimes even when they do), it takes them to the login page for my router.

For example, if I typed in, www.fnb.co.za or yahoo.com it loads this login page for the router.

Is there any reason as to why it's doing this?
Also, any ideas on the first problem?

Many thanks for any help guys!
Rob.
 
Hi,

Your answer seems likley, however this problem happens all the time. Even if one person is on the Internet. Not all machines are being used all the time, only when people come in to use it. All machines are running Windows XP Professional and the router is a Aztech DSL600EW.

Thanks for the reply.

P.S: The problem happens one every PC on the network, regardless of how many are connected to it at any one time. My thoughts are a dogy router..
 
Thanks Marc2003. I do have a new router to test with. Will try tonight when no one is using the computers.
 
Tried the whole DNS settings, including the from from the link provided above, however I am still having the exact problem. :(.

I haven't got another router to try at the moment though.

Thanks for the help guys!
 
Directing to the login page isn't that much of an issue at the moment. It's the constant "Page cannot be found" issue that we're having at the moment. Users have to constantly refresh the page a couple of times to get it to display correctly.

This happens on any computer on the network. :(

Will look into what you suggested though.


Many thanks!
