Posting new as it's a couple of weeks since I first raised this. I
only get the occasional chance to fix, and today is it. I'm still
stuck, can anyone help?

I have done a release and renew using winipcfg - worked OK.

nicros asked:
Do you have anothe nic, or modem in the machine ?
ipconfig/all Should point you in the right direction.

No, but I did - I previously had a Proxim Symphony wireless card in
there, which worked OK but I decided to upgrade to WiFi + router so I
could bring the laptop in too. I uninstalled that.

I have today uninstalled and reinstalled the D-link software and PCI
card. Again, other network things work fine but not Internet - eg I
can play an mp3 on the win98 PC from the c drive of the XP Pro PC, and
I just cut&pasted the result of using IPCONFIG /ALL from Win98 PC to
Laptop, which I'm now using to write this. Result, if it helps:

Windows 98 IP Configuration

Lease Expires . . . . . . . : 10 19 03 18:29:05

I can ping the other 2 PCs too.

So what am I not doing to convince the Internet bits to use the
router??

Frustration mounts. All help appreciated!
Ken

Aaaaaarrrrrrrgggggggggggghhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rest easy folks. I just fixed it by a flash of inspiration. I
uninstalled Cybersitter, and all now works like a dream!

Now why didn't I think of that before?
