Hello gurus, I have an issue with a network here. We recently added a server to the network running server 2003, network was fine but there was problem with internet. ISP is swift and was connected directly to the network switch. Windows XP systems could browse while Windows 7 system could not browse ( we had already configured DNS and active directory). Due to this we decided to connect the swift connection directly to the server (has two NICs), all systems started browsing but then I now noticed some sites could not be accessed. For example I can access my blog through bogger.com but can't view from .com. Some other sites too can't be accessed but they all can be accessed from the server system. What could possibly be the way out? Note: swift DHCP address range is 192.168.1.1 while that of server system DHCP is 192.168.0.1 Thanks |

pheesayor: Hello gurus,I guess your not an administrator on this said server....there is probably an implemented policy or proxy on the firewall with the server which is supposed to restrict/block some out-bound sites(blog,facebook etc) probably while at work. all that ip oyinbo u wrote was just the default gateway..it doesn't relate wit ur problem.. the best way to by-pass firewall is through the use of proxies...I wont deliberate so much on this...but here is a tip... download freegate..(yes the famous freegate)it would hijack the dns and give u a customised server/browser that will by-pass the firewall |

Victoriousvic: Hi, good morning. My laptop has had this issue of going off immediately the power source is out for 3 days now. . .this morning, I noticed that the battery hadn't actually been charging, it says "plugged in, not charging". . .could this be the problem and how can it be solved? Thank you!that is not the power adapter for the system...the ratings are not the same...they may look identical and even fit each other but its not the same...if ur system requirements is 19v 3.5a and u put an 18.5 3.5a the result would be "pluggee in but not charging" here is the interesting part,if ur battery is on 60% and u continue wit that charger,it would maintain the 60% status(ie it wont chatge or discharge it)till u remove the charger.. check under ur laptop for the output requirement of ur laptop and contrast it wit that on ur charger..u will be able to tell the difference |

there's no site blocked on the server. I'm the IT guy here but it seems this is going beyond me. Is there any tweaking I can do with the dns to make it work? I can't install freegate on all the workstations nao. Is there anything I can do on the server to make this work? Thanks sameolg616: |

pheesayor: there's no site blocked on the server. I'm the IT guy here but it seems this is going beyond me.connect the lan cable of the swift router directly to a system and enter the configuration with 192.168.0.1...now check the firewall settings on the router since its the internet source for the server...use a clean system(so that ur troubleshooting my be traced accurately)..try open the sites which the swift is connected only to a laptop directly..if they open then its a policy or setting from the server or the antivirus running on the server(most antivirus come with their own firewall as well)..if it doesn't,then its from either the laptop or swift router |

GrAnDwEeZ: pic Bro your Wireless device not even found nor activated. Press the fn+f2 keys to put it on . If however this does not work. Restart the system and continuously press f2 until the bios setup loads. Go under network. Click enable wireless device with fn+f2 keys... Save it and restart the system. It would show now. Your wireless device is disabled... |

Initially the swift cable was connected to a switch and all was fine but after connecting the server and installing DNS, only windows xp systems were browsing while higher one (Vista and 7) weren't browsing. I discovered the gateway on the xp systems were 192.168.1.1, same as swift while gateway of windows vista and 7 systems were 192.168.0.1 which is the one assigned by the server. The server has two NICs so we decided to connect swift directly into one and share through the other one. This corrected that issue and every system was browsing but some sites stopped opening. Those sites are opening directly on the server and on systems connect via wifi sameolg616: |

Focus more on the swift router.... If its blocking some sites on certain systems or operating systems then the problem is with the protocol supported on the router. Since the system worked fine before the introduction of the swift router. the problem is with the swift router. I don't think there's any problem with the windows 7 systems or their configurations. maybe the router is old and is not compatible with later versions of windows after xp. |

1. Put the disc in your optical drive and restart to boot from the DVD. You may have to change the boot settings in your BIOS if booting from a CD/DVD is not enabled. ( See how here .) Watch for the “Press any key to boot from CD or DVD” message. 2. On the "Install Windows" screen, make the appropriate selections for language, time, and keyboard, and then click “Next”. 3. On the next screen, click “Repair Your Computer”. Do not click "Install now" 4. In “System Recovery Options”, select which operating system you want to restore if any are listed. It will be blank in many systems with only one operating system. 5. Click “Next”. 6. The “System Recovery Options” screen shown below will open. 7. Select “Startup Repair” or whichever option you wish to apply. |
