" This is more like a block by TPG "
Sorry mate ...but you appear out of your depth on
mail and modem issues.
I have had TPG for over 15 years without your heartaches.
"""""
My top tip for all your probs is register on Whirlpool
http://whirlpool.net.au/profile/index.cfm?a=register
:::
" To register, you will need to confirm your email address.
Free, web-based email services occasionally cause problems
with the registration process.
It is strongly recommended that you enter your main email
address — often the one supplied by your ISP,
but ideally one you'll have for a long time."
Register a separate email A/C on Lavabit
They do not spy on you.
Use that one for Whirlpool.
https://lavabit.com/apps/register
Then go to the TPG forum
http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum/90
and tell them your issues.
They have good TPG reps.
Joseph D...is very helpful.

I would wipe your modem to Factory default
and start again.
Make sure you know your settings,
user name and password.
And then update the modem.
Back it up if all working before getting any update.
After update and all working...back your modem up again.
If you can get wireless in Windows but not Puppy
then you are using the wrong version...or need a Pet
from Tempe etc.
No ifs...no buts.
You have the wireless switched on in Puppy....
Sure...the most common problem???
Do not assume that it's on.
And stop buggering about...just use Frisbee.
