Check that the IP settings for the HP XW6200 are correct.

IPCONFIG / all - copy and paste here, if possible.

Is it fixed or DHCP addressing?

To check IP stack:

Confirm from ipconfig that address, subnet mask, gateway and DNS servers are correct. If IP address is 0.0.0.0 or starts 169, DHCP isn't working.

Ping 127.0.0.1, if OK then ping own IP address, if OK, ping gateway (router), if OK then ping known external IP (e.g. 4.2.2.1), if OK then ping external hostname (e.g. BBC - Homepage).

Tell us where it's breaking down.

PS - when it's all working, lock it down and take away admin rights!
