Re: [squid-users] Re: Re: Squid-Newbie question

This should be very simple, when your cable modem is
off and your system is on, there is no Internet
connectivity so no page should be displayed, and when
you turn on your cable modem, may be you need to
restart the dns not the squid.

So first start your cable modem, and than you start
your system. It should not be of problem
