Appears to be working.
I ran winipcfg on the 98se system and it "finally" renewed wireless with an
ip of 192.168.0.101
Will need to check 5 other system for conflict when other folks get in
office.

Strange thing is when I opened winipcfg it showed the built-in SIS card but
for the wireless instead of showing Linksys wireless it's showing a Realtek
RTL8180 Wireless Lan?

The SisNIC card is showing an IP address of 169.254.34.103, Subnet Mask is
shown as 255.255.0.0 and the DHCP Server is 255.255.255.255 and nothing in
Default Gateway(not connected).
All other systems/cards are showing 192.168.0.xxx, Subnet= 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway=192.168.0.1 and DHCP Server=192.168.0.1.

Could the SIS card be causing a conflict?
I want to be able to use hardwire SIS card if I'm somewhere where there
isn't wireless..
Do I need to unplug wireless, connect hardwire and run Winipcfg to correct?

Also,
I have 3 enteries under Device Manager;
1. IrDA v3.0 Fast Ifrared Port ((The IR does not show up in Winipcfg))
2. SIS 900 PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter
3. Wireless-B Notebook Adapter
All 3 show up in CP-Network with TCP/IP's.

Any suggestion on what to do with these, if anything?

If you change ip addresses like this you also need to enable dns in
the tcp/ip properties and enter an address for a nameserver. This can
be either your router's ip address or the ip address of your isp's
nameserver.

Incidentally, using 107 is likely to cause a similar conflict later to
what you are experiencing now. Try 249 instead.
