Help, I cant open any site...


Recommended Posts

Here we go, I tried almost everything I know but of the PC's I have cant access websites.

Im sharing the ADSL connection through a router (I also tried ICS) but no luck, Every PC in my LAN could see websites, just one is giving me a headache (W2K Server SP4, AthlonXP 1800+, 256 DDR), I can see shared folders, printers, etc. but if i try to open IE and type e.g. neowin.net it just give Site not found.

IP is 192.168.0.4 , subnet mask: 255.255.255.0, Default gateway: 192.168.0.1 and everything works on the other PC's but not this with W2K Server SP4.

I have IIS enabled, Telnet Server, and DHCP Server. I'd disabled DHCP Server but no luck the same thing.

WTF is happening?

Please Help me.

yeah if you can ping it then you know that at least it is connecting and it is not a hardware thing. I would go over again the workgroup and ip's etc.. make sure everything is right.

It cant resolve domains, I have to specify the IP address because if i use Obtain an IP automatically it just gets 169.254.X.X not 192.168.0.x . Every PC is in the same workgroup, the same range of IP 192.168.0.x .

I ping www.cem.itesm.mx (my college site) not luck, host not found but if I use ping 132.254.8.30 it works, but if I put http://132.254.8.30 no luck, site not found.

my DNS is: 200.33.146.201

You may want to call your ISP and ask them what the IP of their DNS servers are. I have seen problems with some routers when you set the DNS settings to the router's IP instead of putting in the ISP's DNS IP.

Also, did you put any rules in your router for this server (possibly blocking all ports going outbound)? I ran across a problem similar, and I found that I forgot to set a rule allowing DNS requests to go through the router.

It's the DNS of my ISP :p, No rules to the router, just MAC filtering and the MAC address is there. As I said before, just one PC is not working out of 6 eventhough it has the same settings as the other 5, just a different IP obviously.

you have a DHCP server running? :blink: and you have a router... why do you have a DHCP server running on it? :huh: how many NICs does this server have? you might be seeing the IP address assigned to the LAN NIC, not the WAN NIC...
