fvs318n - Internet working only for wifi users

Hi there,

Afters some attempts trying to get everything to work with my new fvs318n vpn firewall I do find a very odd internet access problem.

For some reason my wireless devices do not have any problem connecting to internet but in the other hand all the users that are directly connected to the firewall do not have internet access.

To make things just a bit more funny, all the computers without internet can use all related google services (gmail,searchs,etc ...) but not any other web-site also if you try to ping or do a trace route to any box on the internet it does seem to work correctly.

I do have the latest firmware also have done a hard reset several times, also ensured that there are no firewall rules causing the problem ( I don't have any!).

Any ideas or thoughts about what the problem can be will be really appreciated!

Thanks, Javier. :o
