Helen, go back to the original thread with your father. If you had said
that you were his daughter and this was about the same issue, I would
not have told you to make a new post. This thread is closed because
continuing here will only fragment the thread and make it impossible to
help you.

I have added an answer to the original thread. Read through the entire
thread and post the results of ipconfig that I asked for. Post in the
*original* thread.
