Re: fool windows into thinking it has internet access

[robert k Wild <robertkwild@xxxxxxxxx>]

ok i have realised something, my client cant resolve this address

C:\Users\rkw>ping dns.msftncsi.com
Ping request could not find host dns.msftncsi.com. Please check the name and try again.

is there anyway i can enable ICMP/ping via the proxy so this works?

thanks,

rob

hi all,

trying to fool windows it has internet access and not just network access

looking at this guide

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-US/troubleshoot/windows-client/networking/internet-explorer-edge-open-connect-corporate-public-network

i have put in my white list

.msftconnecttest.com
.msftncsi.com

i have whitelisted ports 80 and 443 by default

on my windows client i have enabled the proxy via settings > proxy > manual proxy setup

and also i have enabled the winhttp proxy putting this in cmd

netsh winhttp set proxy ip_address:port

and i get back a connection test text saying "microsoft connect test" if i go to

http://www.msftconnecttest.com/connecttest.txt

but my network icon is still saying just network access only not internet access

can anyone help me out please

thanks,

rob
