1. I have got two XP Home machines and one 98 laptop linked to an Origo ADSL router. The XP machine are set to obtain ip address automatically which they do (one is set to ‘192.168.0.5’ and the other ‘192.168.0.7’). The 98 laptop should be coming up on the ipconfig as ‘192.168.0.6’ but instead it comes up as ‘0.0.0.0’? I have pinged the laptop’s network card and got a reply but I get no reply from the XP machines. I’ve checked the cables and they are fine so I am pretty much stuck.
