xp home unable to connect to internet via hub
thx for your response- the only firewall is the one on
the router. it does not affect anything does it. xp home is able to get to internet thru the router, but only when connected thru the hub, i have the problem. any more suggestions. -----Original Message----- Uninstall any firewalls which may be running. -----Original Message----- xp home computer is unable to connect to internet or able to see or be seen by other computers when it is connected thru a hub which in turn is connected to a router to adsl modem. When xp home is connected directly to router, everything is fine- all computers can see each other & get on the internet. ip address on xp home system defaults to some ip address & subnet mask when connected to the hub. Please help me. thx. the lights are green both on xp home & on the hub. but no activitity. when connected thru a router, it gets the correct dhcp address & subnet mask assigned by the router. Other systems on the network have win 98, 98se, xp pro, win2k server. it is peer-peer; no dns involved; dhcp automatically assigns ip address. . . |
