none of my browsers accept cookies, no security software installed

Hi, as the title says, none of my browsers - Chrome, Firefox or Opera - won't accept cookies. I've set all to accept everything and even added the site I especially want to get cookies from to be allowed, and the same in IE settings (also IE thinks it can't even connect to the internet when i try to access the cookie check page provided by the domain I need cookies from).

I have no security software installed, and the windows firewall is all turned off.

Now there's one more detail, though, my network consists of two routers, the first has the internet connection plugged in (and it's also a stupid Asus router that sometimes decides to disconnect, particularly when it discovers new devices), and the second router is connected to the first, via the plug that I use on the first to connect to the internet... My PC is on this second router, all on cable connections.

Any idea whether some sort of router settings could provide the cookies from reaching my PC? If not, what else?

Thank you very much for your interest.

Some routers allow for filtering things like proxies, cookies, active x, java, etc....might go into the router(s) config program(s) and check

Check your router settings. Like Tradesman1 said, there could have been a setting in there you could have accidentally clicked on.

Try using only one router and switch between the two to see what they do.
