Hi. I've been unable, for the past month or so, to submit to LOR--my browser hangs and/or gives me an error page (I should say "browsers", as I've tried with IE, SlimBrowser, Netscape, and Mozilla). I've also had occasional problems with downloading stuff from certain sites and connecting to some sites (problems happen at the "login" level). I've rebooted, cleared cache, cookies, history, etc. It's happened with browsers that have been on my computer for a long time, and some (Net. and Mo.) that I downloaded specifically to address the problem. Now I'm wondering if, perhaps, the Network Address Translation/pseudo-firewall function of my Netgear RP614 router might be causing these difficulties. Anybody have an opinion on this? Thanks!
