Okay people... hope someone can help me:

I have a WinME machine on the network that can see the internal network and even telnet into the router using the internal address 10.x.x.x, but it can't see anything out side of the local network. This machine is setup to use that router as a gateway, nothing fancy. I have tried three different NIC's in three different PCI slots. Nothing has worked. This is a fresh install on a newly formatted hard drive. Anyone know what I am doing wrong or what I need to change?

Well I have the inverse situation--I can see outside but this machine cannot see other local Windows machines but these other machines (non-ME) can see and connect with this one. I've tried all of Microsoft's fixes to no avail. There are clearly some screws loose in this OS

I imagine that since you can telnet to the router, you can also ping it. Can any devices on the other network ping through the router to the workstation? You may have a routing problem...especially since the 10.x.x.x network is supposed to be "non-routable." This could also be your problem.
