I am using linksys WUSB54G network adapters in a peer to
peer network between a XP pro and 98SE computer. The
wireless network requires a specified IP address, but my
ISP server requires an automatic assigned address. I can
do this on the XP but it appears to be mutually exclusive
on the 98SE machine. When I make the change in control
panel / network / TCP/IP wireless it also applied to the
ISP connection. How can I setup both a specified and
automated IP address on the 98SE?
How many network adapters does the 98SE computer have? There's a
wireless adapter for the peer network. What adapter does the ISP
connection use?
Each network adapter has its own TCP/IP configuration, and changes to
one adapter don't affect another adapter.
To help others understand the situation, please reply in the news
group with a copy of the 98SE TCP/IP configuration. Open a command
prompt window, enter this line:
ipconfig /all ipconfig.txt
and copy/paste the contents of the "ipconfig.txt" file into the
message.
