Default Gateway offline (according to MSN)

[Sam`]

Well i got back from being away for the week end to discover when i turned my computer on it didn't want to sign into MSN so i pressed troubleshoot and it told me my default gateway was offline. I then tried to open Mozilla firefox which was unable to connect, I then tried xchat (IRC software) which didn't work (i got a message saying "* Connection failed. Error: An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions" i don't know if it will help).

I then tried Internet Explorer which did work and is how i'am posting this.

I'am using a wireless connection with a wep key.
I'am with BT and have a BT-homehub (i'm not sure on the model as it doesn't say on the back but i will try find out)
I'am running Windows XP Home Edition with SP3.

I havn't tried connecting directly because i don't have a cable long enough, also there is another computer on the network which is running fine (also wireless) also my xbox is connected to the same networking (wireless) and is working fine.

Here is extra detail;

Dude got the same problem for 20 days already. Made a post here and seems no 1 knows how to fix this. I replace my modem, network card, cable and as u i had win XP sp3 and even changed to windows 7 now. Same problem still apears. If u do find something on some other forums pls make a post on this 1 or mine "Default gateway offline" by Krisium.

Thanks mate that fixed it! I'm never using McAfee ever again!

[2xgrump]

Anytime mate. I wonder if the other Dude read this post, so that he can fix his issue too. McAfee is a very good product, but I hear you, I have it installed in my servers and it's causing issue too, but I found away to fix it. Can you pls. mark this post SOLVED? I'm glad that I could help.
