InetGet() function isue

[darzanmihai]

Also Does it Consitantly fail on one network and not the other.

If you try multiple times on the one network does it eventually go through or does it always fail on that network until you change it.

There are still to many variables to consider in this instance. more detail is needed.

I have tryed this:

-I took 2 computers,connected them in the same network

-comp1 downloaded sucsessfully but comp2 did not

-Then I connected the computers to a Orange modem the situation remained the same...

-when I connected computer 3 to the firs network, it worked fine but when connected to the modem it failed to download

-other computers I tested worked both for the modem and for the firs network

The situation remains the same no matter how many times I try to download.

All computers use Win XP SP2.

In the situations that did not worked I also disabled the Antivirus and the firewall and still nothing...

what clues should I look for?

You say when you 'change' the connection.

What do you mean by that? Are these two separate networks? Is this on a Domain that you do not control? etc.

Can you ping outside addy's on the box's that fail? Can you ping the host of the file you are trying to download?

Still need more information.

They are 2 separate networks.

"Can you ping outside addy's"-haw do I do it?what is an "addy"

To the "addy" question He means can you ping the addresses from that network.

The first common issue I see is anything you have connected to the "Orange" Network fails. Tha points to something in that networks config that may be blocking you. As for the first scenario with comp 2. What happens if you wait a bit and then try to downlaod again latter. without switching networks. Also are all of these systems going through 1 router to get to the file. It may be a block to keep too many threads from downloading from the same IP.

On the network what are the IP addresses you are using and what are they as seen by the world. This would be step one in my opinion. If you are going through 1 router and using the same IP. That may be your problem.

Also the issue with the Orange router. Something in that config is blocking you totally it looks like becasue nothing can download through there. At least that is what I get from your descriptiojn.
