Multiple adapters/protocols causing browsing problems?
Regarding my earlier post on problems browsing computers on a network with
Win98 and Vista Ultimate computers, here's another question. My Win98 computer apparently has 2 ethernet adapters -- a Diamond PNA and an Accton. Both have been installed, each with two different protocols -- IPX/SPX and TCP/IP. Addtionally, a TCP/IP protocol for a USB cable modem is also installed from the time when I was directly connected to the cable mdem via USB (before I set up the network with my new Vista laptop through my router). Could this be causing problems with browsing over the network? I prefer to use the Accton since it has 10/100 Mbps speed, while the Diamond has only 10 Mbps. Do you recommend I uninstall all except the TCP/IP protocol for the Accton adapter? -- Shri

Yes, use TCP/IP only.
