I have a 8 port Linksys router that works fine with three existing
computers. I decided to add a fourth which was a new Dell with Windows
XP home. This computer is accessible through the shared folders on the
networks but can not access the internet unless you unplug the router
and plug it back in. This works without fail until you get off the
internet and try to get back on. Then you have to unplug again. This
router is located approximately 60 feet away and requires stair climbing
to access router which tires me out.
1. Computer is accessible through shared folder without unplugging router.
2. Have tried different jacks on router, same results.
4. Tried jacks that other computers works on, same results.
3. Three other computers work fine on this same router.
4. Checked cable and even laid out a cable on the floor to upstairs with
same result.
Any other ideas?
Thanks
