I have two computers one a laptop and the other a regular computer. We recently switched from 5.0 kpbs to 3.0 kpbs on roadrunner. The regular pc works fine w/ the internet as soon as we changed but the other one(laptop) wont let me connect to the internet. Do i need to program the laptop something different? Tell me what to do.

It sounds like your IP address isn't changing on the laptop. I need to know what Operating systems you are running on both and do you have the laptop and regular pc networked together through a router?

Try turning off the Laptop, Desktop, Monitor and DSL modem in this order. Leave off for 1-2 mins. the start back up in reverse. I think the IP of the Laptop is bing corrupted. This happens to me occasionally and this cures the problem for me.

check the proxy, and also check the IP adderss, subnet mask, default gateway, and DNS, also you can call you ISP's helpdesk.
good luck.
