    Can log in with phone but not computer

    Hello,
    I can log in with my phone, but not my computer. I used the the username and password. I’ve tried Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge browsers. If this is a common problem, or if I did something dumb, I do apologize.

    Thanks

    No success. I’ve tried three browsers, cleared the cookies in each, and deleted my temporary internet files. I didn’t want to bug you working men that volunteer your time so that we can have such a great forum. For longer post I just type them in an email, and copy it to the forum from my phone. Thanks for following up.

    I've checked your account, nothing wrong that I can see.

    Is it from home that you can't log in on a computer? Could be that you have an IP address that the site doesn't like. Try rebooting your router (unplug, then plug back in); typically that rotates the IP when you have a dynamic one, which most residential IPs are.

    I can use tapatalk or just log in with my phone on the website. I have a refurbished dell desktop computer running the some new Microsoft operating system. It’s not a big deal to me, I still thoroughly enjoy the forum. Before I was a member I got a lot of good information from poodle head Mikey. I’m just happy be a member and hope I can contribute some day

    I have a computer connected with WiFi from the router. I use the same username and password, and it says I’m incorrect and have so many tries before I’m locked out for 15 minutes
