Oops - I left something out!
Lets try again....
*** I said:
Have you checked your DNS settings? Are you using DNS at all? (on your
internal network?) Are you using DHCP?
Try this - connect w/o the STN box - verify that things work
correctly,
and then open up a DOS window.
(win95, win98) type winipcfg /all
(winNT win2k) type ipconfig /all
This will show you what the COMPUTER thinks is happening - especially
for things like DNS, WINS, etc.
*** Add:
Carefully copy down these settings - paying particular attention to the
DNS settings.
Then connect thru the STN box - reconnect - verify failure - and then
repeat the same commands, taking careful notes and comparing them with
the settings you copied down before.
*** Then continue with:
If your ISP's external DNS servers are not propigating thru to your
machine's network config - you're hozed.
Let us know what happens!
