NTL and Belkin F5d9230-4 problem
I have just inslatted a Belkin wirless router and connected ot to the NTL cable modem
The Apple Mac connects wirelessly ok (wouldn't it just!)
My existing win2k PC will no longer connect to the internet when I connect the ethernet cable to the Belkin router
I have done a ipconfig /all which says...
host-name = home-pc
primary DNS suffix = blank
node type = broadcast
IP routing enabled = no
WINS proxy enabled = no
I have even truied reconnecting the cable modem directly to the PC and it still will not connect to the internet
Arrrggghhhh!!! Help me someone please or I'll lose all my credibility...

Power down the modem, router and pc.
Now power on the modem and let it settle and then the router and finely the pc. See if that helps.

Re: NTL and Belkin F5d9230-4 problem
Good article here troubleshooting a wired connection that doesn't work when a wireless one does. Substitute your router's IP address for the one given....

Re: NTL and Belkin F5d9230-4 problem

i tried pinging the router but it could not see it...not sure where to go next...
tried to connect directly to the cable modem again and it failed...

Re: NTL and Belkin F5d9230-4 problem
Try deleting the network drivers for the win2k PC, reboot the PC and reload. Make sure that somehow you haven't disabled that connection, and that the ethernet cable is fully plugged home (i'ts not a crossover cable is it?).

Re: NTL and Belkin F5d9230-4 problem
Try netsh int ip reset c:\resetlog.txt in a command window (I think this works for 2000 as well as XP).
This resets the tcp/ip stack, full info here...

Re: NTL and Belkin F5d9230-4 problem
how do I delete the drivers?
I have forgotten how to delete the drivers...moved over to Apple ages ago...
I tried to view the available devices but it doesnt appear to list network cards/ethernet as a device...but the ethernet cable is defenitely plugged into somehting that has a green light
If I find the card and delete the drivers...where will it find them?

Re: NTL and Belkin F5d9230-4 problem
What do you get if you ipconfig /all now?

Re: NTL and Belkin F5d9230-4 problem
host-name = home-pc
primary DNS suffix = blank
node type = broadcast
IP routing enabled = no
WINS proxy enabled = no
Does it mean the network card needs configuring (foudn it by relevaling hidden devices)
I alao tried the netsh command but it wasnt recognised

Re: NTL and Belkin F5d9230-4 problem
Have you tried ipconfig /release ipconfig /renew?
Other than that you could check the NIC config, but it was working before...

Re: NTL and Belkin F5d9230-4 problem
Follow this as far as step 4, then select Obtain an IP address automatically

Re: NTL and Belkin F5d9230-4 problem
Can you remove the NIC in Device Manager, then run the Add New Hardware wizard?
