I think I had this same issue several years ago, but for the life cant remember exactly how i resovled it so im seeking help
My job allows me to work from home and I use my Verizon DSL to connect to the internet via DLink wireless router Until last week I had no problems connecting to the internet AND to a VPN/Remote desktop connection. I was at my corporate office last week and logged into the network there, where they occasionally push out new software to us. I do know they pushed out Quicktime to us when I logged in but not aware of any other programs When I returned home I could not connect to the internet (ie web browsing) BUT I can connect to the wireless router to access my VPN/Remote desktop A quick google search revealed that I may have to put my verizon modem into a 'bridge mode' - BUT I think I tried that before but it did NOT work when I had the issue before. Thoughts?? Would the 'bridge' mode block web browsing but allow me to access the VPN/remote desktop? thanks Brian |

Minor update.. I found out yesterday that the same thing happened to 3 of my coworkers who also telecommute- something that the IT dept pushed out to us killed some of the settings
I dont have admin rights so I cant fix it myself though.. thanks for the help though b |
