Ip addresses in Wireless network
I have configured a lot of wireless networks using Win XP, so I think I know what I'm doing. Now Vista got me confused. Ususally the ISP provides an IP adress for the routers "outside" and the router will have an internal DHCP that provides internal addresses. Vista, however, somehow manages to get an address from the ISP:s DHCP server! How is this possible? It also creates problems when trying to connect to the router via the web browser. To clarify: when connected to the internet via the wireless router, the IP address and domain is provided by my ISP. I want it to be provided by my router.

Ip addresses in Wireless network
What's the router model # and could you please post back with the result of
ipconfig /all (you may modify the public IP for example x.x.x.123)? -- Bob Lin, MS-MVP, MCSE & CNE Networking, Internet, Routing, VPN Troubleshooting on http://www.ChicagoTech.net How to Setup Windows, Network, VPN & Remote Access on http://www.HowToNetworking.com "Sten" wrote in message ...
