Hi,
I have a new laptop. It has WinXP on it.
I have a 2 computer and a switch win98 network. I can not see the WinXp
machine; it can not see me when it I try.
I have the workgroups all named the same.
I may have changed some setting or other that will prevent me from
networking.
I have all the gateway settings and port settings at variations on
192.1681.x where x is 1&2 for the older machines and 3 for the LAN 1394
connection. I have a Broadcom 440x 10/100 integrated LAN connection
that has an address of 192.168.0.1.
I really do not know which of these two connections is attached to the
J45 jack, and thereby to the cable to the switch.
The Broadcom connection said that it is repaired. The 1394 connection
said that TCP/IP is not enabled for this connection.
I have modified the 98 machines to have gateways that could use the
addresses of either LAN.
I do not have a network cert., and only completed half of A+ long ago.
XP is mostly new to me
I have tried pinging, I have made a *.bat file that will do that from
dos on the 98 machines.
Please help,
Sean
