Windows Forum / Windows 98 / Internet / May 2008unable to connect to internet
when I hit my internet explorer I get a message starting "PAGE CANNOT BE DISPLAYED"..My ISP is with COMCAST CABLE...contacted them, and was told I would have to contact Microsoft and get help..is there a booklet or online help pages. I have WINDOWS 98. Try this. Go to Start>Run box and type in WINIPCFG, then press <Enter>. Make sure your network adapter is showing in the drop-down (not PPP adapter, for instance.)

Is there a cable from there to your machine, or does it go through another device? Is your connection wireless or hard wired (is there a thick cable attached to your machine coming from the cable modem or other device, or is that part wireless?) SignatureGary S.
