Soooo, the guy who cut the ethernet cords around here, yours truly, must've done a crappy job. Yeah embarrassing. Check your switches and cords kids!

Lost internet at the office over the weekend. Got it back up, and then Monday morning, everyone's PC is working, except 1... there's always 1.

 

This one's internet does't work. Okay, it kind of works... only Google-based websites like Google itself, and YouTube work... everything else -- it can't find the website's IP addresses? WHAT?!

 

I did a fresh install of Windows and THE SAME THING HAPPENS!

 

What is this voodoo? HELP! Thx. ;)

 

P.S. tried automatically assigning IP and manually too.

The only thing that doesn't change outside of a complete windows re-install is the motherboard NIC's MAC address. Does the offices switch or router have any MAC based rules? This could limit its communication with the network & internet.
