I cannot see past my cable router so I have my doubts that the cable company can. My router appears as the only pc connected to the WAN.

My router was locking out my computers from Internet access on occasion. After I upgraded the firmware, the webserver I placed in the DMZ is no longer accessible outside of the LAN. Has anyone else...

One problem I had when setting up my Linsys router was the TCP/IP protocol and Windows 98 accepting the IP assignment of the DHCP from the router. I corrected this by removing the protocol,...

Thanks for the info Joker 1, I'll need it for my next upcoming project. A $0.00 internet connection sharing network on a cable modem. I prefer a hardware solution myself, but not everyone can...

Just want to show off the project I've been working on this month. I have a 4pc lan of 2 workstations, 1 file/print server, and 1 web server. I have 2 Linksys, 1 Dlink, and 1 Netgear card, 1 Linksys...

Most routers act as a firewall hiding all pc's connected to them from access to the internet. If your router is a dhcp server, you have to assign the ftp server a static ip address and put it in the...

Easiest solution I know of it to set it manually. The only problem you'd run into is if another machine grabs that address is your's is offline at all. I find that most dhcp servers tend to give...

Good to hear that the solution was as simple as that. You can always count on someone else to really foul thing up. :D

I have to agree with Darren. The VIA 4 in 1 driver sounds like the problem. The VIA chip set is sound but needs the driver to be compatable with the OS. Also, try contacting the MB manufacturer. ...

I'm wondering if you pci steering drivers are working. New motherboards with all pci slots use steering to share the same irq's across various cards. If your network card is set to automatically...

When all else fails: remove the tcp/ip protocol, reboot, reinstall the protocol, reboot, and you should be set. Win9x tends not to be very refreshing of new tcp/ip settings.

What protocol are you using. Install NetBEUI for Win98 and everything should work fine. I haven't had a workgroup problem since NetBEUI was added by Microsoft. I have TCP/IP file and print sharing...

WinRoute is an excellent piece of software if you can afford the license. I went with the Linsys single port router and a Linksys 5 port switch. I opted for this since I have other servers not on...

Where I work we have a mix n match set of cards without any 3Com cards. I still haven't had a problem with cards failing. The Netgear and Intel are the best performes with DLink and CNet dragging...

I've had nics last years and some only minutes. I'd suggest having your power checked and putting a surge arrestor on each pc. The nic replacement stopped where I work when I did a little power...

I changed my 1st post to what I meant to say. Sorry for any confusion. Thanks for catching it.

I have a small network set up and would like to use 1 fax modem to send outbound faxes. there are many Win2000 software titles for network faxing, does any one know of a fax sharing software for a...

DHCP is the host protocol for assigning IP addresses automatically to individual machines. If you want to share an internet connections I suggest to a good firewall package like WinRoute lite. It's...

2 nic's cannot communicate without a hub between or with a cross cable. I found a 4 port 10BT hub for about $15 at Bestbuy with a $10 rebate making it $5. 10BT is fast enough for a home network and...

Windows was an original development from Dos Shell and 95 is much closer to OS2 Warp than Apple's OS. As for their competition, who else is making an operating system the avaerage Joe on the street...

Absolute worst: Packard Bell & Acer. These lead up to the Emachine revolution. Dell, Compaq, HP, IBM fall into the same catagory: hard to work around their custom built setups. I don't mind...

I tend to go with the Sci-Fi bend myself with hints of Star Trek. "I believe the flux capacitor needs adjusting", or, The Heisenberg Compensator needs tweeking". I grab any futuristic sci-fi term I...

I tend to utilize general disclaimer forms to the hilt. Before I do any service I have a signed disclaimer form, much like an auto mechanic uses, stating the price may increase and the customer will...

The Intel chip does not work with and ALI chipset mobo and performs poorly on other chipsets. I've only had success using this card with VIA and Intel chipset mobo's.
