Acquiring network addressI am the only full-time teacher in a small rural elementary school so I get
to be tech person even though I know just enough to be dangerous! We recently got DSL service. I have an ethernet cable running from the DSL modem to a Linksys router. I then have four computers connected to the router with ethernet cables. One computer is running Windoes XP; the others are Windows 98SE. Three Windows 98 computers can access the Internet and share files with each other, but not with the XP computer. The XP computer cannot see the other three computers, and cannot access the Internet. The Local Area Connection status shows the following - Status: Acquiring network address Duration: The clock is running Speed: 100 Mbs Over the weekend, some former students were in the school and got on the computers. Up until that time the XP computer was working all right. I'm not sure if some setting got changed. I've re-run XP's "Set up a home or small office network" with no results. Any ideas?
