I have a wireless network at home, when i'm wireless it doesnt let me on to msn any ideas?

Question

It lets me go on to all other sites fine, just not my space & MSN however if I access the internet through aol its lets me onmy space but not msn? is it the setting on the router and how do i change them (My dad hard wires into the router)

Answer 1

if you can acces other sites, its not the router thats faulty, check your msn account..good luck !

Answer 2

It sounds like you've been denied access by some form of parental control or your Windows firewall has added some form of denial of these particular protocols. I would firstly suggest that you turn off Windows Firewall (Start>Control Panel>Windows Firewall and set it to disabled (you may need to be logged in as an Administrator to do this). If this doesn't work, you need to see if any other software is disabling your access. You may need to check whether your wireless router (which generally is a firewall in itself if it is also a DSL model) is allowing you access. Check with your hardware manufacturer in that case.

Hope this helps.

Answer 3

There are settings with the router (and within Internet Explorer) which can be set to block specific web sites. Sounds like someone may have blocked you from those sites.

Answer 4

Are you running a Firewall?? Check that first disable the firewall and see if you can get on. Also Make sure your internet explorer settings(go to tools, internet options, advanced and make sure that SSL 2.0, 3.0 are checked.
Well if it works when you disable the firewall then that's obviously the issue and you'll need to reconfigure that to make it work.

Answer 5

check browser settings...set it back to default settings.
or it could be a router firewall ssettings.you need to access router & change firewall settings from there.i would advise you contact tech support of router or your ISP

Answer 6

Its not a problem with your wireless, I think you have been blocked from those sites.
