Re: Modem Mode to Router Mode....No Internet Connection

I have had pretty much the same experience with one of my computers that is wired to the SH. I thought I would see how it runs in router mode as there are currently serveral users in my house at the moment. So far using the SH as a router has been fine. I connect with my pc via ethernet, my phone connects wifi, my daughters laptop = wifi and her iphone is wifi. Her boyfriend also connects his iphone via wifi. All working very well and signal strength in a large Edwardian house is acceptable. However tonight - 24hours into the test - my partner turns on her wired computer and although it is connected to our network there is no internet! A bit of playing with ipconfig and it eventually found the connection. the router appears to have issues a correct IP address as it is in the range of all the other connected appliances?
