AOL/Dial-BB problem (+18 rep)

[jesus]

don't say 'get rid of aol it's rubbish' or anything like that because you're just annoying

right well when i load certain websites, or a website with pictures hosted on another site, i keep getting a 'connecting dialbb' popup box thingy and the page won't load until i've clicked cancel on that.

it comes up with an 'error 678 - the remote computer did not respond' and the options are 'redial' or 'cancel'.

websites will only load once i've clicked cancel on it.

any ideas? or can someone look on google and give me info on how to make it work NORMALLY

cheers

Okay first of all reset your IP.

Which Router are you on? I can help you fix it manually, since I'm AOL too.

a netgear one

have you had the same problem?

[BeanEgg]

Go to a browser, type up 192.168.0.1 and the password admin or 1234

Check if all details are correct.

as far as i know they are all correct

pm me a screenshot of yours and i can check?

I'm on another Router but that's what they all do.

Okay, reset your IP, check that your username is correct ([email protected])

Check your DialBB password, it is usually london22

Turn off router
Turn off modem
Unplug both leave off for about 30 seconds.

If that doesn't work as above you can reset your modem back to factory condition and re-enter any appropriate info you need.

It's a common error; http://www.tech-faq.com/error-678.shtml
