Cannot find server, on some sites

[MarkoMan]

Hay guys, just wanted to say A MAGNIFICENT JOB! Osx86 project is what made me go in the apple store and acctually buy a macbook, and than later an imac.

 

Anyway, heres the problem, in a few years and many osx86 systems, this is the first one i couldn't solve or find a solution to on the net.

 

Had installed osx86 kalyway 10.5.2 to a pc (that i had been using for a year) a gift for my gf for her birthday. updated a month ago (still leo). And my problem doesn't have anything to do with the update. since it started about a month after one.

 

She has a home ethernet network, shared with 2 win pc's, and her mac. so in order to get trought the network, and to the net, i had to set the manual adress, dns, gateway and stuff. it was working fabulous. one day, it suddendly stopped. i thought it was isp, but no luck, the win computers were working just fine. than i noticed that my hackintosh could access to certain websites, but not to all.

i can go to facebook, i cant play robot unicorn attack on facebook.

i can go to youtube, i cant go to gmail.

i can go to apple website or itunes store, but it reads only SOME text.

etc.

even this forum, some things open normally, some pages do not.

so i thought i must have damaged some settings. but NONE were tampered with. than i brought my macbook, COPIED all the settings from hackintosh, and it worked just fine on the same lan cable.

checked hosts, no luck, i havent even tampered with them earlier.

When a page cant be loaded, i get an error "Google chrome cannot find this page, or page cannot be found" tried safari, chrome, even downloaded firefox, all the same results.

tried vmware win... everything works nice.

so i stopped the black magic stuff, and turned to the community for a solution.

i had found an information that changing MTU might help, since it vas automatic, tried 1400, 1492, 1500, 1450, 549, 72. nothing changed.

i had searched the net for days, and not much found on that subject. a lot of people were complaining, but rarely anyone solved the problem.

 

the last program i installed before sh*t happened, was skype. No unordinary programs on the computer. Msnmsg, adobe's, chrome, osx86tools, iwork, itunes, vlc, transmission.

 

please can someone help me, it would be really {censored} if i had to go trought the reinstalling process just to get the internet to work without me turning on vmware every time i want to connect. :/

 

EDIT:

"UH OH! And thanks guys! ^^"

Do you have PeerGuardian Installed? I had a similar issue like this and it was peerguardian blocking sites. I had to go into the peerguardian settings and disable filters. After that, everything started working again.

Nop. That's the thing, i'm not one of those people who dont google before asking.

i have written in the first post what programs i do have on the computer. i never needed peer guardian.

 

i have read all the topics i had found on google, mtu, peerguardian, setting up router and modem, restarting stuff, fixing permissions... it seems not even linked with those stufff.

 

:/

 

any other ideas pls?

[zibertron]

Well Since you googled everything already, you probably already tried to flush the dns. So sorry, not sure what else to try. Good luck hope someone can help you.

[MarkoMan]

Tried that, no luck yet.

Tnx for the idea though.

 

anyone else?
