The support portal won't take my serial # or I'd open a ticket with support. :( SG135, current firmware.
Problem is as described. With Web Filtering enabled, Transparent mode, my PC's have the yellow exclamation point in the network status icon and it says "No Internet Access". However, everything works fine. Web Filter is basically at the default settings besides me changing some filtered categories. As soon as I turn off Web Filtering, the icon changes to normal after a few minutes.
According to this technote:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc766017(v=ws.10).aspx
that "feature" checks a few things. All workstations can connect to what this "feature" allegedly checks - http://www.msftncsi.com/ncsi.txt resolves and displays, a request for DNS name resolution of dns.msftncsi.com resolves properly, etc. I have tried adding msftncsi.com as a trust site and so forth with no fix.
I've been telling my users to ignore it as it's just cosmetic but recently some Microsoft apps, namely Office 2016, checks the status of this "feature" and fails activation immediately without even trying.
Ideas? I can't believe I'm the only one having this issue but I've done exhaustive searches over the past 8 months or so.
