what is the problem? how can i make sure its not a network configuration problem? what do i need to adjust on the modem to allow the connections?
You need to disable ipv6 in Firefox. In the Navigation Toolbar type "about:config" (without the quotes) and then scroll down to the option network.dns.disableIPv6. double-click it so that the value is True. Exit Firefiox. restart and you should be OK. Sorry I can't help with the GAIM problem.
