Can’t ping anything on LAN

by bradq . Updated 23 years, 4 months ago

Hi. We have a new Gateway laptop with Windows XP Home running on our network (Yikes). Its setup on our LAN with TCP/IP but can’t ping anything.
ip: 192.168.100.200
subnet: 255.255.255.0
default: 192.168.100.254

I can ping anything on the Internet and browse the Internet. I can’t ping the default gateway or any other machines on the LAN. I know its not the cable because I can unplug the network cable from the laptop and put in another machine and the other pc will work ok.

Is this justa Gateway issue or is something else going on here? I don’t want to load up IPX/SPX or any other protocols. I would like to keep everything TCP/IP.
