Hope this is posted in the correct area.
I just got a macbook, it connects fine to my open wireless network (able to surf to any and all web pages ex: hotmail, gmail login etc )
I also have a wireless WPA2-PSK (personal) network that the macbook connects to and I am able to surf any normal webpage. The problem is it will not surf to any https (secure) pages (ex: hotmail, gmail login etc).
I am sure the problem is in the macbook as my Debian (linux) laptop has no problems hitting any page on either the open or WPA2-PSK network.
Network info:
Comcast cable internet connects to Smoothwall firewall box (linux).
from the firewall:
subnet1 to linksys wireless router running open-wrt firmware (open / unsecured wireless).
subnet2 to dlink DI-624 stock, up to date firmware running WPA2-PSK.
subnet3 to wired ethernet network.
running Mac OS X 10.5.6 clean install, all updates
happens with firefox and safari.
I am able to get to https pages on my internal network (ex: https://192.168.0.99:441 - smoothwall-firewall)
I am also able to get to https pages by typing address in proxy server from http://proxy.org/cgi_proxies.shmtl
update: I tried using wget to download https pages, again no go.
I am new to apple so any helpful pointers as to what to look for would be great.
Thanks in advance.
