th30n3 — Thu, 29 Jan 2009 15:39:17 +0800

i would like to ask, is there a solution or any legitimate setup for Windows Server 2003 R2 SP 2 64 bit edition for the ODBC driver..
am trying to host a website, using .asp
in my ODBC Data Source Administrator, there is only SQL Server driver..
i have tried to:
1) update the windows server to the latest updates,
2) downloaded patch "WindowsServer2003-KB948459-v2-ia64-ENU.exe" and installed,
3) downloaded "Jet 4.0 SP8 x64" and installed it

but all those tries do not work out..
any inputs or help is appreciated..

loop in modem router

hi to all,

i have a problem about soho networking, i have a server2003, 2 switches, 1 3Com wireless modem router, and some host / client.
when i tried to access the website in server2003 from outside, it's successful..
but when i tried from internal network, the webpage doesnt display, it shows either "Service Unavailable" or "Page Load Error"

from external (internet)
----------------------------
from outside (internet), i can access the webpages in the server (internet -> modem router -> web page in server)

from internal network
-------------------------
from internal network (any client) can not access the webpages in the server

when i did some tracert from internal network, the hop is only once (that means it stops only at the modem router), it doesnt go to the internet and loop back to the modem router and to the server

anybody know why is this happening ? and what should i do ?
any help is greatly appreciated

Problem details
First occurence of problem: last year
Problem frequency: unpredictable
Problem description:

hi all,
sometimes my internet speed is max 1200 kb/s and sometimes it's slow.. it goes down as low as 80 kb/s ( both are download speed taken from the reading speedtest.net )... and.. worst case is.. sometimes very hard to connect to streamyx..
and i have to connect re-connect ( PC direct to modem ) 5 or 6 times then can connect..
during re-connection, if the connection fail, either the window dialog box appear "the username and password is invalid" ( cant be invalid because i pay my streamyx bill on time and username password in PPoE connection box are correct ) or "the computer could not respond... bla bla bla"...

this problem sometimes happens once a month or once in 2 months and the duration is within one week or more since last year...

i phoned TMNet "100", and the problem solved, but the solved problem only last for 1 day, next day same problem occur again.. ( tak kan i call TMNet "100" everyday right ? then i'll really become nut )

i have tried troubleshooting all my hardwares + LAN cables at home ( excluding telephone line ) and they are working fine...

the questions which trouble me is:
- can this be caused by the telephone line ( from phone post to home ) ? ( maybe the line is old and need replacement, it's just my prediction )
- or is it because of the poor service from ISP ?
- or is it because of other factor ?
- any possible solution so that i don't need to call TMNet "100" so frequently ? it makes me so fed up..
