Cannot connect to the internet
I just installed a new server that runs Windows Server 2003 R2. I have connectivity to the cable modem but cannot connect to the internet. I have a Braodcom Gigabyte ethernet card in the server. I am new at this and not sure what all to install from the Server Management interface.I et the ip addresses by right clicking on the connection. When I click on the connection it even says it is connected. I hope someone can help.

Cannot connect to the internet
Have you checked the internet settings on the browser. Does it have an ip address and a port for accessing the internet. It looks like a browser issue if it is connected to the internet but you are not able to view the pages. Also let me know if you have a firewall. You would have to configure your firewall to access the intenet pages. Try to add the proxy or select automatically detect the settings and let me know the outcome.
