Re: Need help networking! HELP! FAST
said by AUTIGERS1101  :I finally got a little something yesterday when I hooked up the router and typed in CMD, and IPCONFIG/ALL: Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : Belkin Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Realtek RTL8139(A) PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-40-F4-8D-EA-CA DHCP Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : Yes Autoconfiguration Enabled . . . . : Yes IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.2.2 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.2.1 DHCP Server . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.2.1 DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.2.1 Is there a problem with that? I emailed Belkin and they sent a reply telling me what to do. I followed their steps, and I got to the 3rd to last one, which is type in 192.168.2.1 in the browser bar, but I can't because I still don't have internet. Hopefully you can catch what I'm doing wrong!
OK, that shows your computer does connect to the router, and it's getting settings from there.
Now, as Belkin says, you need to login to the router. We know you're connected to the router, cause you're getting settings. You login with "http://192.168.2.1", in the address bar of the browser. You're going to have to do that, so you can get your Internet working.
If that doesn't work, tell us in excruciatingly detailed words, what you are seeing, including any error messages.

| Your DNS server looks incorrect . It should be 69.50.188.180 . If it still wont allow you to login try setting the DHCP server to 69.1.30.42 with a DNS server of 69.50.188.180
Also try entering 192.168.2.1 into the address bar without the http |

Belkin instructions, "3rd to last" step, told you to login to the router. Did you manage to do that?

OK, what did you change to get there? Knowing that would help us figure what to do next.
Can you find the page where you input the IP address of the DNS servers?

YES! I have an internet connection when hooked up with router. I went to CMD and ipconfig/all and found my physical address. then i entered it into the box on the 192.168.2.1 page and i got a connection! Just one more thing, how do I get the other computer to connect wirelessly to this computer? I went to network connections and connected to this router, but it isn't working. Is there anything I need to do to it? |

The simplest way to get this finished would be for you to run the Network Setup Wizard, and select the NAT Client configuration:
This computer connects to the Internet through another computer on my network or through a residential gateway.

If you don't want to do that, and considering the amount of work that you've done to date I would understand why you won't want to, let's look at "browstat status" and "ipconfig /all" from the problem computer, and one other computer. Then we'll compare, and change, other settings as necessary. Read this article, and linked articles, and follow instructions precisely (download browstat!):

Sorry to reply so late, I didn't need your last reply because I figured it out right after I posted. Now I have a few last questions.
1. I have an Epson C86 printer on my Windows 2000 printer, and am wondering if you can somehow network it with this new computer without a printer server.
2. Is there are software program or something besides Network Magic that I could use to share my files between both computers? I can't do it by Windows, so I have to do it by a program or if there is a way to do it by the router page. (»192.168.2.1)
Please help me out! |

Really? How about sharing what you figured out? That's the polite thing to do.

If the printer is network compatible, you get it working on one computer, set it up to be shared (like creating a file share outgoing), then go to the other computer and add a network printer (like creating a file share incoming).
According to the online web page, the C86 has "network and wireless printing options".

Did you get an owners manual with the printer?

So above you said you figured it out? Now you say that you "can't do it by Windows". What's the complete story?
