The college I work in is strictly M$ only. When I bring in my notebook (as above) and fire it up I get allocated an ip address of 172.16.2.8, by a dhcp server someplace 192.168.2.23. (I don't have the exact boot message to hand.) I can ping 172.16.2.* addresses and 192.168.2.* addresses. But I cannot access the internet. As I understand it, I need the ip address of a router and then specify that as a default gateway. But the technicians cannot or will not give let me have the information. Is there anything I can do, other than getting another job ? Thanks. Joe Mc Cool -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
