I am not sure, but it would appear you have the wireless setup under your user account - remove it, log on as Administrator and set it up again.

 

[panos_gr]

but i'm the administrator, and both users are set up as administrators.

I would think you are a user with administrator priviledges - that isn't the same as THE Administrator.

I may be wrong.

Do you have a DSL connection that requires a login?? you did not mention what type of connection you had?

 

[panos_gr]

my connection is 24mbits from comhem, and i do not think that it requires a login.

cable connections usually do not require login.. Does the problem only come up when using wireless? have you tried to do it wired?? If the problem does not arise using a wired connection and it seems to happen only when you switch users it might be the wireless connection setup for that user.. Not sure if wireless connections are part of a windows user profile (like desktop, my documents etc.)..
