WAN and LAN available, but unable to ping
-
Donnerstag, 12. Februar 2009 11:24Hi,
On my win7 (x86) installation, I am able to use networking (both shares and internet work flawlessly), but I am unable to ping any address outside my LAN (timeout). The other (vista) machines in my home network work just fine.
Tried removing homegroup, swithing between 'home' and 'public' networks, disabling windows firewall and disabling IPv6, but still nog go.
Any suggestions?
Btw my previous 7 installation (upgrade vista x64 > 7 x64) worked flawlessly....

Check your home router settings -

Oh and my internet connection also works: i just cannot ping outside of the lan. (Oh, I can't connect to my newsserver as well)

Can you post the full results like this?
C:\Users\kdbrown>ping www.microsoft.com Pinging lb1.www.ms.akadns.net [65.55.21.250] with 32 bytes of data: Request timed out. Request timed out. Request timed out. Request timed out. Ping statistics for 65.55.21.250: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss),
Don't use microsoft.com as they don't respond to pings. I'm trying to see if the name is resolved properly. Could you also post the results of
nslookup www.somedomain.com
Substitute a site you know should respond to a ping.

Your gateway probably is not set correctly and you use proxy to go out.
In this case you cannot ping outside your LAN -
Freitag, 13. Februar 2009 08:12I'll try your suggestions tomorrow (have no access to that machine right now) and post the exact ping & nslookup info here. Thanks so far!

Hmm... weird, bur changing my ip address from automatic to (the same) static address has solved the problem...
Thanks for your suggestions, gents!
