I am in the process of setting up a server in my office to act as a file
server/print server. Everything is working great and I have a Windows 2000
pro box connecting no problem via wireless nic.
I have an SMC router which has the SBS 2003 server attached to it. I
disabled DHCP on the router and installed it on the server. I read this was
the proper thing to do.
I had to upgrade my XP Home to Pro because I couldn't connect to the server
as a client. Now I can connect to the server if I use a cable between the
router and the xp pro machine. Everything works great.
The problem is I cannot connect to the server or router via the wireless
card, which is the same nic as the win2k machine. I upgraded the firmware on
the card, physically uninstalled/reinstalled and even redid the machine (a
result of unrelated stupid mistake), but it cannot find the new DHCP server.
I am a little lost at this point, but I seem to have read a lot of posts
about people upgrading to xppro and having networking issues?
Thanks
