Male - Christianmac proplems :(
I am using parallels running XP connected to the network at work. I can browse the internet using XP but for some reason I can't seem to get the mac OS on the internet. It was working fine a couple of days ago, but I just can't seem to figure out what is wrong.
The IT guys at work are pretty clueless about macs so I guess I am on my own in trying to sort this out.this is my "external" web page theologyspong.com

Is it just that your browser (which one?) won't load webpages? Or do other internet services like Mail not work either?
Just a note, $cir is right. -Sparko

Nothing works, I have 2 browsers and iTunes etc that don't work. The weird thing is that I did the mac network diagnostic test and it says I have an internet connection and IP address but for some reason my mac applications cant use it.

It seems to be okay now. I think it was a corrupted driver in my Parallels network adaptor. However, it is still not 100% right as I still get IP conflicts on the windows side every now and again although this could be down to our windows network here. Originally posted by Darth Xena
Anyhow, I learned a lot more about my mac in the process of trying to sort the problem so all in all it was a useful exercise.this is my "external" web page theologyspong.com

Tim, is your network at work open, or are IP addresses assigned by the IT group. Fundamentally speaking you have two computers (the physical Mac, and the virtual PC)--if IP addresses are assigned, you may need two IP addresses assigned to you. Originally posted by timspong

The IP addressees are assigned automatically. It was working great for about 3 months before I had this problem and I confirmed with IT that they haven't changed anything. Originally posted by technomage

We reserve IP addresses by MAC address. We occasionally get situations where (for no observable reason) the MAC address will be corrupted on the DHCP server, and will show as a bad address, and that computer won't connect. But if your system is an open network (any computer plugged in can connect), this won't be your problem. Originally posted by timspong

I finally found the real reason for the problem. It has something to do with the firewall in that if a computer is found to using over the set level of bandwidth, it automatically gets blocked from the internet.
So now I just have to call the IT manager whenever I get blocked so he can unblock me.
