I don't think she is, she knows less about computers than I do, the home network was working at one time, but she mess about on the pc not knowing was she was doing, when I got the pc off her the network adapter was uninstalled so reinstalled that and it woprked fine with my router

I assume you can get access to let us diagnose some more?

If so can you go to the command prompt for me by going:

Start>Run>type "cmd" without the quotes

once the command prompt pops up type ipconfig /all

paste the results in your post and post them here

The computer is some miles away in another house, I can tell her what to do over the phone, what I don't understand is the computer worked fine with my router, I got online no problem but when she got home she still couldn't get online
