Router Modem conflict
MEB wrote:
Sounds like you should have the router connected to the highspeed modem [cable/DSL] and let your network connect via the router. The router would then assign IP addressing for the networked computers and printer [if a true network computer]. Yes, that was my original setup, since last weekend and that is what I went back to. I thought that seperate NIC's would be more secure,but that is not the case. The router is more secure,no more pop-ups on my ZoneAlarm. I will assuage my fears by installing a RJ45 switchbox, to physically disconnect the 2 machines when I don't need to print. |
