clutch 1 Posted September 9, 2001 So, your PCs see each other OK on the LAN? Were you using it as DHCP server? If the DHCP portion went on the fritz (or just needs to be reset), you will lose connectivity to the router and hence have no control of it or access through it. If you set your PC to a static IP that is in the same range as what it was assigning, you should be able to "see" the router on the network and get back into it. Share this post Link to post

clutch 1 Posted September 9, 2001 Do all of the workstations have the same IP as they did before it went out? Share this post Link to post
