Oy. Thanks muchly, Wayne, as always. I'm going to study on this. But I
won't try it until tomorrow, since I have learned to my sorrow that
anything I do to a computer after eight o'clock at night is not likely to
turn out well :-(

I completely agree with Carl but my experience with Supt personnel is well
less than stellar. I would go to the manufacturer's website & see if they
have any newer drivers but other than that & maybe restricting your use of
cordless phones while online I'd still do the manual assigning of ip
addresses. Most routers have as the default DHCP services turned on just
because it's easier to setup that way. You would have to turn that service
off then assign an ip address to the router & to each of the NICs. Since I
don't know which router I can't be more specific about that but the NICs
are easy to setup. Go to Start/Control Panel/Network Connections then
right click on the NIC that you want to manually assign & select
Properties. Scroll down in the popup window til you see Internet Protocol
(TCP/IP) click on that then the Properties button in the lower right.
You'll get another window that looks something like this
General
You can get IP settings assigned automatically if your network supports
this capability. Otherwise, you need to ask your network
administrator for
the appropriate IP settings.
Obtain an IP address automatically
Use the following IP address:
Click use the following IP address then fill in the blanks below but I've
already put in suggested values assuming that you set the router's LAN IP
at 192.168.1.1
IP address: 192 . 168 . 1 . 3
Subnet mask: 255 . 255 . 255 . 0
Default gateway: 192 . 168 . 1 . 1
The next values are assigned to you by your ISP for their DNS server & you
should have them on paper someplace but you must keyin the values
manually. The Preferred is req'd while the Alternate is optional.
Obtain DNS server address automatically
Use the following DNS server addresses:
Preferred DNS server: 000. 000. 000. 000
Alternate DNS server: 000. 000. 000. 000
The same thing applies to the wireless NIC(s) as well.
As you know if you have any further problems please don't hesitate to ask.
