Hi Everyone, Can you please help me A friend of mine asked me to help him with his business network. He has a total of 3 computers on the network( D-Link router), the main computer, the left and the right computer. The internet is also hooked up through ATT DSL. The only computer that can access the internet is the main computer. About 4 years ago he used a password to block the left and right computers from accessing the internet. He forgot that password.
My Dilemma: He wants to replace the right computer (Win98) with a newer computer (XP Pro). I had an awful time trying to network the new right computer and I never got it going. Somehow, in the meantime, the internet went down. I called ATT and had them help me, though I had tried already what they wanted me to do again. I ended up putting the older computer back on the network and everything works fine.
What could I being doing wrong that the newer computer isn?t finding the present network? What could I have done that would of made the internet mess up even though I can?t access the internet from the right computer? If I didn?t tell you everything you need to know, please ask me and I?ll try my best to tell you.
Thanks in advance!
