Greetings,

I have Windows installed in my MacBook utilizing Boot Camp. All programs work fine on the Windows side of the house except I can't access the internet.

If I plug my work computer into my router, I immediately can access the internet on it. When I plug my router into my MacBook while in the Windows mode I can't access the internet.

Is there something I need to do to access the Windows browser? I tried the Microsoft setup but it can't seem to access my computer. Any suggestions?

Are you getting a valid IP address in Windows from your router (not a 169 address)? Did you install the Mac tools?
