$.AJAX not always working

$.AJAX not always working

I have a AJAX call that works great in firefox but not in IE9.  I am thinking it could be down to same origin policy but why does it work in firefox?
 
the error message I get back in IE just says undefined.
 
what more can I do to understand the error better?
 
here is the code
 
 
 
$.ajax({
    type: 'GET',
    url: "http://192.168.0.34:81/tenHsServer/tenHsServer.aspx",
    data: {
        t: "ab",
        f: "ToggleDevice" ,
        d:$x10Device
    },
    error: function (request, status, error) {
        alert(request.responseText);
    }









});
 
thanks for any thoughts and help
