We use Windows 2003 Server on our wired LAN and we DO NOT use the Internet for LAN computers or the Server. We do have a wireless DSL router that we know works when we use a laptop (not on LAN)...
However, we now have the need to use a XP Pro PC on the Internet AND the LAN. We installed a wireless adapter in the PC and we can connect to DSL router and browse the Internet, BUT we have to disable the wired LAN connection to get it to work.
Here is a summary of our setup:
Workstations on WIRED LAN: IP: Statically assigned 192.168.1.x GW: empty DNS: 192.168.1.5 (WINDOWS 2003 Server IP address)
Wireless Router IP: 192.168.1.1 DHCP enabled --for laptops
PC Wireless Connection:
Obtain automatically IP & DNS, gets:
IP 192.168.1.42 DNS 192.168.1.1 DHCP 192.168.1.1
How can we get both the wired & wirelss connections working on this PC. We want to isolate the Server and other PCs from the Internet as much as possible.
Seems to be a gateway issue...
Thanks!
