XP Pro losing network configuration

[LS]

I have four XP Pro machines. They were all accessing the
Internet via a ICS machine.

We have since switched to a dedicated connection with a
router. I ran the Configuration wizard and configured
each machine to go through the router. This works fine
until you reboot or recover from hibernation.

I have to run the wizard at EVERY reboot in order to
access the web.

Is there a way to manually force it?

Sounds like the configuration is automatic and changes on
the fly. We use the 10.1.1.xxx - 10.1.1.xxx format. Our
first xxx is 200 and the last is 250. Thus each user is
assigned a fixed number. The router is configured to
handle NAT. We have been online for 4 years with no
problems. Talk with your isp about a good router
(Cisco), so you can block spam as well. Our printers /
servers use a number below the 200 to protect them from
the internet trash. IE 10.1.1.75 = server 10.1.1.80 =
printer. Gateway is usually 10.1.1.1
