LAN/WLAN at my office using proxy. but why YM and YM via adium can`t connect??

I already choose using/not using proxy option but still can`t connect. but, with the same case it`s fine when i`m using window for YM at my office.

another case, using Mac for YM via dial up there`s no problem.

why ??? why windows can but Mac (and Adium) can`t??

Are you sure you actually have valid internet connection? Your symptoms sounds suspiciously like your router is assigning an IP address that is valid for your lan but does not actually go out to the rest of the internet world.

To rule out this possibility, are you able to access other web content? For example are you able to reach this page from your Mac on the LAN/WLAN?

Also it may help if you could let us know your OSX version and Adium version.

yes sir,
I reply this thread with my Mac via LAN. if I set a wrong proxy there`s no way I can surf on the web, aren`t I??

I was not thinking a proxy issue but rather a valid IP issue. With a wireless router, it distributes IP addresses to your individual machines and then the router uses an IP address provided by your ISP to actually connect to the internet. So it is possible your machine thinks it has IP because the wireless router gave it one, but then the router cannot actually connect to the internet because the wireless router does not have connection to the ISP.

However since you can connect to the internet via the LAN then the IP address is not the cause.

Sorry but that exhausts my ability to help. Hopefully someone else will have an idea.
