I have a Dell laptop running windows 2000. I have a netgear wireless router at home and an intel wireless card in the laptop. I can connect to the internet just fine wirelessly and can receive mail too. I have been able to send mail in the past but it seems that every week or so I lose that ability and Earthlink's support can't seem to tell me anything to get it working again until it "mysteriously" just starts working again at some point.
To add to the confusion, I can send mail just fine when hard-wired into the wireless router or when connected to my office LAN. That would lead you to think it's something with the router, but then comes the kicker, whenever this happens I can send e-mail using Outlook Express (v6) using the same exact settings as I have in Total Access 2004 and it works just fine. I'd use OE instead but there are a few tweaks they made in Total Access that I like better, except of course this annoying issue.
Any help would be much appreciated. Here are some other details:
-Have tried uninstalling/reinstalling
-Tried their Fixmail utility
-Have deleted and recreated my account profile
-Have tried changing all the settings various ways. The only way I've been able to work is with the outgoing mail server set to smtpauth.earthlink.net using port 443 and saying that I need authenticated login.
