Network help please (IP Conflict)

[Mike]

Thank you for the advice. I would definately rather allow
the IP addresses to be found automatically. I did not
run the utility, can that be found on my Win xp disc?

The 2 98se machines are using wireless network cards.
Should I load the utility on them and then set the address
to automatic, then shut them down while I work on the main
machine and unplug the router?

In addition, do I need to do any other configuration
within the router itself?

Thanks for the help
Mike
