Mutiple Wireless Networks in area

by tman12 . Updated 22 years ago

I have set up a wireless network to append to an existing LAN in a building using a Lynksys Router and one PCI wireless board. I have the Network ID set, WEP configured, and also using a different channel then the default. I have set the PC (Running Windows XP)to only connect to the Network ID which I have set on the router. It works fine for a while, but then for some reason the IP address and Subnet mask will change. It appears to be receiving an IP from one of the other networks. I would like to keep DCHP running rather then assign static ips. I have also installed the client software for the wireless board, but still incur the same issue. Any suggestions?
