Possible solution for those who see network but can't access inter

I was having the same problem that many were having where I could view my
networked computers but couldn't view websites through the internet, although
I was able to ping them.

I found the solution here: http://blogs.zdnet.com/Bott/?p=10

I was able to disable SPI on my D-Link 4100 and then was able to view
websites through my browser after that. Hope that helps some of you out there.

RE: Possible solution for those who see network but can't access inter

I'd seen that before, but thanks anyway! However, having to disable a major
security feature in our firewalls is not really a solution as such. But yes,
it might get some people working just to test stuff.

Also, I would try it, if my router allowed me to disable SPI! I'll just wait
for a proper fix...
