I am correcting a simple network of 5 computers with dial up sharing. all are connected via switch setup before me. all are running 98.
I found 3 to 4 adapters when i went into properties of the network.
Are the adapters interfering with the network as it is inconsistant and can i remove the ones not part of the nic?

Before you delete any adapters, you have to kmake sure what they are there for. Usually modems have more then one adapter in the system. the best way of doing it is by creating a second hardware profile in the system, and then diabling the unnecessary adapters and seeing what that does. You are right in that it may cause problems with the network.
