Wireless Internet Problem - Help?

Question

I get wireless internet (antenna on the roof etc) from wirelessbeehive.com
Everything works ok EXCEPT now I can't log onto my favorite game SecondLife. I get halfway thru the login process to, "Waiting for Region Handshake" then get the message, "Login Packet Never Received by Login Server."
So something is preventing me somehow from logging in completely. I've tried reinstalling the game and disabling McAfee Firewall but that didn't work either.

Please Help me figure this out. Thx
P.S. Wirelessbeehive.com uses the 'new' Motorola Canopy technology if thats any help.

Answer 1

If you have Windows XP with SP2, you might have the Windows Firewall turned on too. Open your Control Panel and look at the Windows Firewall setting.

From what I understand beehive is totally awesome. I don't think that they are blocking that service. The error message might be bogus, where there is something wrong, but not what it says.

I looked at the SecondLife support pages, it does say this:
*
Second Life is not compatible with dial-up internet, satellite internet, and some wireless internet services.

**
But if this worked with beehive before, you are probably OK.

So now I wonder if you have some nasty Spyware or something that slows you down. You should have an anti-spyware solution on your computer. I recommend that you go to http://www.download.com and get AD-AWARE and SpyBot Search & Destory. Install, run, update and scan your computer with both programs. (you have to run these manually)
