I can't get my internet working with LH, I've got a router, and I'm not using Dynamic IP.
I've configured the internet just like I do in WinXP, or win2k or any other windows client.
I can ping computers in my network, but I can't reach any computer on the net!
Anyone else got this problem?
plz help

Using a static ip then eh? Try this for size...
Longhorn build 4051 sports a rewritten TCP/IP stack which in a lot of ways is nice, but it has more than its share of bugs. One of the most critical bugs is that changing to a Static IP in network settings will kill the network route going to the gateway, which in turn kills the internet connection. At first I had no idea how to fix this and then i began to dig and found the problem.

The problem is that the gateway route (as i mentioned above) is gone after switching to a static IP. It can be fixed by using a DOS command, see below.

To fix the Internet route in Longhorn 4051 open the command prompt (Start --> run, cmd.exe and press enter). Type the following:
route change 0.0.0.0 mask 0.0.0.0 x.x.x.x metric 1 if X
x.x.x.x is the IP address of your gateway and X is the metric ID of your network card.

Now your Internet will work. Good and dandy right? WRONG! After a reboot it will be messed up again so here's what you have to do. Put the command i mentioned above in a bat file and save it to C:. Then go into gpedit.msc and navigate to Computer Configuration --> Windows Settings --> Scripts. Double click startup. Click add and point it to where you saved the batch file. Now on every reboot it will fix the internet before login.
