I just emailed the only guy who might know anything about it (the login info), who sold his business and retired but rumor has it he used the same password everywhere so how's that for security? :rolleyes:

from a command prompt netstat -r will return the routing table. Be sure there is a gateway in there. you can also do a tracert to an external address, I'd do both name and IP to see if you are getting dns resolution. Either/both should start with the local gateway as the first response, and then you'll be able to see where the connection dies.

No VPNs, I've rebooted switches and routers and it's not just WiFi; a couple of hardwired Windows machines also get no internet. 

I've kicked it over to tech support with the ISP so we'll see. Thanks y'all...

I'm sitting here on the internets doing my thing when the boss comes around the corner and says he's on wifi but "No Internet Connection." I rebooted his laptop, clicked some things (Windows machine I don't know), restarted the router, nothing. 

Customer comes in and tries to connect to the guest wifi, MAC laptop, also no internet connection. They can all get on the WiFi though. 

I restarted everything in the closet (switches, etc.) which caused mayhem but the TV in the guest lounge eventually reconnected to the internet. Restarted the wifi just for good measure. My TWO Apple laptops connect, the boss and the customer (windows and apple) both nothing.

What wires should I jiggle next?
