[Help] Router Problems (Lynksys BEFSX41)

[[SKM-Industries]]

We have a wired network between 2 XP machines (Pro & home) connected to a Lynksys BEFSX41 wired router with hardware firewall. this, in turn, is connected to my NTL broadband modem (1mb).

The problem is this:

When one of us boots up our computers, the other is disconnected from the internet and the network.

This is also the case when myself or friends connect our laptops to the network.

We have been using this modem problem-free upuntil about 2 weeks ago (after more than 2 months of problem-free use), when we began experiencing this 'difficulty'.

Any and all help greatly appreciated

Is this with DHCP? Have you tried static addresses?

firstly, thanks for moving the thread ^_^

i do believe we do use DHCP, though i could be wrong, i now little of networking, though i thought it was irrelivent as it has been working just-dandy for quite some time until recently.

as to the static IP's, yes, i think we have those too
