CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1202) — Question 139

A user’s computer is able to access resources on the corporate network but is unable to access internet web pages with a browser. Which of the following is most likely the reason?

Answer options

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The most likely reason for the issue is missing proxy settings, which can prevent web traffic from being routed correctly while local network access remains unaffected. An IP address conflict, incorrect subnet mask, or a disconnected Ethernet cable would generally result in a total loss of connectivity to the network, rather than just preventing internet access.
