Is the Laptop new ? Have you even been able to connect sucessfully to the internet from anywhere with the Laptop? Does you ISP require you to register what 'devices' can dial in ?
Are you using Inernet Explorer ? Are you using wirless network or Internet Connection Sharing or is it a direct dial up from the the Laptops Modem. Is the desktop and Laptop connected at the same time ?
Make sure the Dial up Network properties are ok and in Internet Explorer / Tools / Inernet Options / Connections everything is set properly there. -
nvm i got this problem fixed, all i did was try to restart my pc then it took me to the bluescreen and i restarted my computer with the last settings that worked and now im on the internet
Notebook dial up problems "connection was refused from the server"
