What steps did you follow? You've quoted my email in it's entirety then top-posted yet more begging "please make it work". Computers don't respond to religion. You're dealing with the Technology Genie here: he'll grant you unlimited wishes, *BUT* expects you get to understand him in return. If you don't want to do that, pay someone who already does understand him. > i realize that only WhatsApp Instant Messaging App > is going... Other browser(Google chrome, Mozilla) are not going.

Think of the OSI model, check… - physical layer (e.g. cable connections, radio settings) - data link layer (e.g. VLANs, LACP, SSIDs, crypto settings) - network layer (e.g. IP addresses, routes) - application layer (e.g. DNS) … IN THAT ORDER.
