Re: Router set up help
 

Why bump when there are still posts, with suggestions, which you haven't replied to?

Have you tried this: http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/sh...4&postcount=69


Or this: http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/sh...7&postcount=74

etc.


Are you still having problems with it?

Wayne,

I take it that you didn't get it working using a fixed IP.

As I said last night, if we can't get it working that way the best thing that you can do is go back to having your router dynamicaly provide an IP address for each of your machines:

Turn the DHCP function on on your router

Set both of your machines so that they obtain an IP address automatically

Thanks for all your suggestions, reps on the way Raistlin and Matt, but i had to revert to Windows Issuing an IP and DNS address for the router. I gather there is nothing wrong in doing this?

EDIT: Seems i cant rep Raist. :(

Nothing wrong with it at all.

So long as you turn the router's DHCP server back on, then Windows should be able to pick up an IP address & the DNS addresses from it.

Nope, nothing wrong with doing it at all.
