I have (soon had I hope) the same issue with Windows 7 and IPCop. Never did
find a solution. There are tohers that did not see the issue with IPCop and
Windows 7 - so I am assuming it is either a configuration issue with IPCop
(Best Bet) or somthing with a switch along the way. i was lucky enough to
solve it by giving the computer in question an external IP and trusting the
user (My Superintendent) to not break any AUP rules. Not sure how that is
going though.

Subject: [tech-geeks] Vista/7 not connecting to network
I'm hoping somebody on here has experienced this and has a solution to
this very annoying problem. I have a couple of newly purchased windows 7
machines and a single vista machine that are trying to connect to get past
my Router. DHCP hands out a valid IP and points to the right places but
from there, the Default Gateway doesn't acknowledge that the machine
exists. I can ping and access all internal servers but can not ping the
Default Gateway. FYI, the Default Gateway is our CIPAFilter that has no
problems with XP or OS X 10.6. Any comments or thoughts as to what might
be occurring would be greatly appreciated.
As always, You stay Classy Internet.
Thanks,
Jared Lynn
