I have a troublesome network issue that is perplexing, but probably very simple to correct. I worked on it till about 3:00 a.m., so that is probably the problem? :-) I had to reconfigure the network parameters for 3 computers while changing from ISDN to DSL. Here is the former setup: 3com external Officeconnect ISDN Lanmodem using DHCP to give the 3 computers internal IP addresses. The addresses that were assigned were internal 192.168.1.xx and a netmask of 255.255.255.0. All three computers could see and share each others resources and all had internet access just fine. Everything worked great. I have now changed to DSL and am using a Cisco 675. I was having trouble with it's DHCP function so I just manually entered IP addresses for each PC. I am now using 10.0.0.X and a netmask of 255.255.255.0 for each PC. I have entered 10.0.0.1 as the gateway, which is the IP set in the cisco. Each PC has internet access just fine, but they cannot see each other. I can successfully ping each other, but nothing shows up in network neighborhood. So nothing was really changed except manually assigning IP addresses and using 10.0.0.x series instead of 192.168.1.x series assigned by DHCP. Any ideas? File sharing is enabled and shares are still there. One PC is NT 4.0 and the two others are Win98 boxes. I hope I have adequately described this... Thanks Dan
