No processing means nothings happening! Heres the problem. Boinc repetedly tells me "Boinc needs an active internet connection to download new files". The things is, I am already connected to the internet! Internet explorer and other internet apps are connecting fine, so whats Boincs problem!!??!? I have a broadband connection. My ADSL modem has ethernet ports on it and I connect to the net through the LAN. Could this by why? ID: 544829 ·

Is it set to allow BOINC.exe to call out to the internet on http (port 80) and https (port 443)? BOINC WIKI ID: 545161 ·
