I 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?
