I've given up on getting my wireless lan card to work but am now confronted with another networking problem. I'm hoping someone can help. In V9.3, I was able, by some magical process, to assign a fixed IP address for use in my small local network and, at the same time, use DHCP provided by my ISP to go outside my local network to the Internet. I don't seem to be able to "do the magic" under 10.0. I'm either missing a critical step or the system has been changed. Here's my setup:
The problem seems to have been an IP address conflict between DHCP and static IP addresses. Thanks to all for helping find the problem.
It appears that the problem has not been resolved. There was an address conflict, now repaired, but... Since the laptop (toshiba) will be rebooted frequently, I decided to reboot it just to make sure. Guess what. The ethernet connection no longer works. Worse, no matter what I change in the configuration of my PCMCIA ethernet card, I can't ping anywhere nor can I access the Internet. This has all the signs of a bug in the 10.0 software. Which bugzilla would I use to report such a problem? -- Donald D. Henson, Managing Director West El Paso Information Network The "Non-Initiation of Force Principle" Rules
