Thanks for the reply Tom and I have been all through that with the tech
on my Linksys. At the end they determined it was a DNS issue and said to
go back to the mfg of the software.
I have been under the impression that I should be able to get to the
internet without considering the NVDVR system. That may not be true.
Check my answers to Peter.

Hi Larry,
From the CMD window type ipconfig /all this will give you information
about your DNS servers IP address. If the IP is not listed or is
incorrect for the DNS servers. Check the adapter configuration in
Control Panel, Network Connections, Local Area Connection, Click
Properties In the Local Area Status window. In the Local Area Connection
Properties window Click once on Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to select it
then right click to get the properties for TCP/IP ensure that obtain an
IP address automatically and Obtain DNS server address automatically are
checked.
Hope this helps

I just got off the phone with a tech with Linksys. It boils down to a
DNS problem according to the tech.
I have a Digital Surveillance System (DSS) using Windows XP and I have
acquired a static IP address for the computer with the DSS installed
on it. I am using bellsouth DSL and have their modem and a Linksys
router.
I have my normal shop computer and it gets to the internet just fine
using the same system as above.
I have configured the router just fine but when, from the computer 2,
I ping the IP address of Yahoo.com for instance it give me the 4
returns I expect. If I ping "Yahoo.com" it can not find the server.
The tech tells me that is a DNS problem and I should check with my
software people. (Computer 2 will not connect to the internet.)
Does anyone understand my problem and can afford some help? The
software is XP and I have no security installed like firewall etc. I
turned XP's off. (I am in over my head.)
