I have a laptop and a PC on the SAME network. Yet, once and a while I'll be able to access one page on the laptop, while it wont load on the PC - or visa versa... wtf... why?
It'll come up "cannot display page" on the laptop, but I'll try it on the PC and it'll work fine - or - again - visa versa...
Web page question

Do a tracert on both and see where you get to. Do you try multiple pages when you get that problem or do you just switch to the other computer when it happens?
For to win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.
Alright, let me give you an example.
I'm at home on the laptop, try to pull up NT - get page cannot be displayed. Pull up Google it works fine, pull up other pages they work fine. Thinking maybe NT is just down - go to desktop - pull it up and it works just fine. Go back to laptop - still wont come up. Next day, try it on the laptop and it works just fine. It's very strange.

Next time it wont come up. Run the following commands (obviously replacing domain.com with the domain you are trying to get to)
ping domain.com
traceroute domain.com
telnet domain.com 80 Then if it connects run the command "get" and you should get a result similar to whats below.
penpen@balthazar:~$ telnet namelesstavern.com 80
