I tried the static address but when I did the ipconfig it only showed a physical address. No IP Addresses or Subnet Mask....nothing. It kept showing the ethernet configs. Only showed: Host Name primary Dns Suffix Node Type Ip routing Enabled Wins Proxy enabled Then goes into Ethernet adapter On the other thing about the modem is that it works for the Macs and they are all wireless.

WooooooHooooo!!!!!!!!!! I have a SP2 Does that help?

I know that the PC has at least the Service Pack 1 in. I don't know about SP2. When I click on network connections it shows three networks. The Local Area which worked when I connected the ethernet. The Wireless B(which is the Linksys) show "not connected". The other is dell trying to pick up something without a card. I have clicked on the Wireless Network Tab and viewed networks, picked the Link and it won't connnect. I then click the advanced button in the preferrred networks and picked any available one and preferred access points. Still No Go. Please, Please Help!!!! This is driving me crazy

The Macs are connected wirelessly. I just tried connecting the router with the PC with a ethnet cable and that worked. I am excited about that. I really just wanted to get this wireless. The DHCP and the SP are all greek to me. I appreciate the help I just need it spelled out a little more for me. I am a little slow.

This will be my fifth forum to find out this question. I am willing to answer back everyday to find out the solution. I have a cable internet with an external modem, I have a d-link wireless router, and a linksys wireless card for my notebook. I have two macs (Powerbook and an iMac) they both are connected. My router is unsecured and open. My work is PC driven and they gave me a dell notebook that runs on XP Pro. The problem is that when I put the linksys card in and put in the software the PC will not let me connect. It shows the network, shows a strong signal but when I use the connection wizard it will not work. I have disabled the firewall and tried to reconnect. Still no go. If someone could walk me through the settings or something that will get this thing connected I would appreciate. I don't want to say my job depends on it, but it kind of does. PLEASE HELP, PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
