Using a touchstone telephony modem. DHCP is active in services, using zdwlan. The psp will successfully check signal with 100 percent strength, and will connect to the net but will not load any webpages. Everything works perfectly up until it tries to open a webpage, but the screen will stay blank and come up with a time out error eventually. I've tried all sorts of urls, and have internet connection enabled. What gives? My zdwlan and psp works perfectly on any other computer i've used it on.

Check your DNS? Is it supplied through DHCP or manually entered?

i believe its automatic through dhcp.

through ipconfig /all...

dhcp enabled... yes
autoconfiguration enabled... yes
IP address 24....
subnet mask 255....
default gateway 24....
dhcp server 68....
dns servers 68....
68....

no static ip or anything on here. do i need to manually enter some dns numbers in the psp network settings?

Thats how I did it, theres an option on the psp to assign DNS manually while keeping your DHCP ip address.

Enter the same DNS servers your router uses, or your pc if you're connecting to the net via that.SO it should be the address starting with 68....

i released/renewed.

'the connection to the server timed out'. just won't open any webpages. the modem doesn't have a built in router. i reset the modem.

ethernet adapter local area connection:

dhcp enabled yes
autoconfig yes
ip address .... 192.168.....
subnet mask 255....
default gateway nothing listed
dhcp server 192.168.....

ethernet adapter wireless network connection: (zdwlan adapter for my psp)

dhcp enabled: NO
ip address: 192.168.....
subnet: 255....
default gateway: nothing listed


So does DHCP for my wireless adapter need to be enabled since it is not? how would i go about doing that? as far as i can tell this is just a modem, not a modem/router.

Pretty much yes, you need to turn on internet connection sharing on your PC. This effectivley turns your PC into a DHCP server.

Looky Looky - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using...d_02july01.mspx

You need to turn on connection sharing for which ever connection your PC uses to connect to the net,in your case it's your ethernet card

Not sure why your dhcp is timing out though, does your pc connect to your modem via USB or a network cable?
