Default Wireless Problem

I am wondering if anybody knows why my wireless connection only works on one account which is the administrator account. The other two accounts on my PC show connected to the wireless but internet explorer wont show any webpage. Does anybody know Why? I think it's a setting somewhere but don't know where.

Thanks

Hey, Davem! Welcome to PCHF!

My guess is that there is some sort of security issue in the way of the other accounts, however I have marked your thread as [Open] so a Tech member can make a more definite diagnosis and provide more clear instructions.

To get this information -> Start -> Run -> type "ipconfig /all" {enter} - do not type quotes and DO place a space before the /
