Good questions for which most I have not done. However I am on DHCP from the router. so my machine has the IP of 198.162.1.300 my other two machines are 301 & 302
I did not check the IPCONFIG but when I view the router configuration, it still maintains the IP assigned by DSL. I can not ping the router from the IP ..300 considering it is down for internet connections. Thus might be an idea it could by the NIC card however it was a new NIC card by LinkSys. I will try the other questions tonight. Thanks! >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 02/14/02 09:23AM >>> A whole bunch of questions... :) Are you doing dhcp off of the router, assigning static internal ips (192.168...), or getting ip's from your isp for each machine? When you lose your connection what does ipconfig report? What happens when you do an ipconfig /renew (only if dhcp...)? Does it still have the correct ip? Can you ping your router? What does the Local Area Connection Status window report (not sure if that is in XP actually, but it should be...)? If it shows the connection enabled, what happens if you disable the connection and reenable it? Have you tried replacing the nic? 90% of the time the nic is to blame... jon ----- Original Message ----- From: "Randell Byron Adkins" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Community" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, February 14, 2002 8:58 AM Subject: DSL / Router > Question for everyone: > > I have DSL and a DSL Router.
