Hi, I have linksys 4 port router, with ADSL, I have been using it for about 5 months with out any troubles, sharing my connection between a dell desktop and a dell laptop.
My brother just bought a toshiba satellite, and I just can´t get it to connect to the Internet. It is running winxp pro with an intel ethernet card. In all my other boxes I just needed to configure my connection with "obtain ip automatically", so that the router acts as dhcp and assigns the ip. In the toshiba laptop, I put all the correct settings but it is not connected, it obtains a wierd ip address that doesn't correspond to those for my internal LAN ie: 192.168.1.xxxx It seems that the router isn't recognized, I am sure there's some problem with the toshiba cause both dells still work fine.
What else can I try??? Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks
