can't connect mac to internet through ethernet at work!
#9
I"m suspecting your router or VOIP device is misconfigured...
You're getting that "public" IP address from your DHCP server on machine #1.

Machine #2, I would clear out all the settings, switch it TEMPORARILY to "DHCP with manual address"... preferably with the IT guy's permission and support so he can give you an IP number to put in that's not currently in use so you can troubleshoot.

I would also clear out any "proxy" settings, (#2 has that "Proxies: *.local, 169.254/16" line), unless your IT guy says to keep it...

Based on the other thread, I agree with C(-)ris.... your IT guy IS an idiot.. but a necessary one to get this stuff working.
