WINE has no internet connection..

Hi! This may be an inappropriate place for this question, so mods please move it if need be.

I am a gamer, and I just lost my 500 GB HDD , and had to revert to FreeBSD (and I'm glad it happened. I love my little Daemon!). Anyway, I got Dead Space to work, as well as a few other games, but seem to have some trouble getting an Internet connection in WINE. I have tried using InternetExplorer (IE60) and I can't even get out to my local network!

If there is a work around out there Google doesn't know it, and let's face it Google knows all. e

As for info I can give you this is all I can think of:
If more is needed please ask, but be warned I'm new to FreeBSD, and might not know how to get the info you need, so please be patient. (Yes I have been burned on a forum or two ;))

WINE says
Code: 
RAS support is not implemented! Configure program to use LAN connection/winsock instead!
and
Code: 
CancelIPChangeNotify (overlapped 0x14da6f8)
(BTW all Internet connected MS applications say that)

I am fairly experienced with WINE on Linux (please don't flame me for that), and I have NEVER seen these errors before. My goal in this is to get Star Wars: The Old Republic working. If that is even possible!

Any help would be, well helpful, and thanks for your consideration.
 
You won't get burned for presenting your problem in a respectable manner.

Have you contacted the maintainer(s) of the WINE port that you installed? Have you contacted the WINE website to see if this problem has occurred before to another individual?
 
Thanks @cpu82. I only wish I had the necessary knowledge to help in that capacity, I fear my only usefulness in this would be testing. Thanks again
