- AmiTCP goes through a few stages on URL lookup...
-
- First, it 'Looks Up' the URL. Then, it 'Makes Contact' to the URL. Then it
- 'Sends Request' to the URL. Then it 'Waits For Reply' from the URL. Finally it
- loads.
-
- If your problem is in the first, 'Looking Up URL', stage, your Nameserver is
- probably entered incorrectly.
-
- If you problem is in the second, 'Contacting URL', stage, your problem is most
- likely your IP address. Now it gets confusing. You're best off emailing with
- your setup because there's way to many variables to mention. Is your system on
- SLIP, PPP, or some kind of SLIP/PPP emulation like TIA? Is your system address
- dynamic (do they change every time you login)? Do other programs like FTP and
- telnet work?
