did you change the SSID from the default name to something unique? are there other wireless networks in range? what kind of wireless security are you using?

It's quite simple, just one box to untick or tick to change from "Let Windows manage my connection" to static addressing. ipconfig /all from the wired, more reliable, PC will give the numbers you need. Each PC needs the same gateway address, subnet mask, DNS server address, all that changes is that each PC needs a unique IP address. Google for static ip xp to get more info. It's worth doing ipconfig /all on each PC, then you can compare. I have ip addresses for all of the machines....but what would the DNS server
address be? <ato_***@hotmail.com> wrote in message Show quote news:VLydnXsC2ou929XbRVnyvQA@pipex.net... > > On 14-May-2007, Barb Bowman <barb@nospam.com> wrote: > >> >I have 4 PC's connected, 1 via ethernet to the router the other 3 have >> >wireless cards accessing .

Hi
Make sure that the powersave feature of the Wireless cards is Off (Example, http://www.ezlan.net/example/powersave.jpg ) Try all the Wireless channels, and choose the one that provides the best "Speed" (It is Not necessarily the strongest signal, http://www.ezlan.net/faq.html#signal ). Make sure that D-link utility and Windows WZC are not running together. Jack (MVP-Networking).

Powersave is off on all. Hmm...well I'm looking for consistency more than speed now...i am only selecting my SSID but I have connected another unsecure wireless signal i could see while i was waiting for verizn to turn my DSL on and it seemed to work ok (I should say that i connected for brief periods to check my mail then disabled so i am not sure how consistent it was but i think it was ok) I am not using the WZC i am using the D-Link utility I also should note that last night all were working but when i returned home none were ablt get to internet though again signal was good. I had to poer off router, powere of modem, wait 2o secs or so, power on modem then the router then everyting worked again...so far. Not sure why resetting the modem/router works or why i have to do it but it works but it is a real pain in the....a__! Thanks for the reply.
