413467 2005-12-17 23:13:00 System seems OK, but browser and other email access is not there. All icons show that connection is fine, but no internet access. Do i now need to change something in internet setup ? hotkiwi (6379)
413468 2005-12-17 23:14:00 Recheck the ip address, has it reset itself? Myth (110)
413469 2005-12-17 23:16:00 So file sharing works, if u want file sharing between the 2?

And what default gateway, did u give the desktop?? If u entered in 10.0.0.2 or whatever. try 10.0.0.1 or whatever the router's ip address is.

Umm is ICS (or whatever program you're using), enabled on the main PC whatever the main PC is??

413470 2005-12-17 23:18:00 No, doesnt seem so.
It says: IP address 10.0.0.7 (that was me), subnet mask 255.255.255.0 (laptop uses 255.0.0.0) default gateway 10.0.0.138 (=modem) and then DNS server is empty, whereas on my laptop it daisplays there also 10.0.0.138.........

413471 2005-12-17 23:23:00 OK enter the same info u have for the laptop.

On the desktop. Wherever its got 10.0.0.138 on the laptop put it in exactly the same place on the desktop.

But leave the ip address you've entered for the desktop as it is.

The subnet is usually 255.255.255.0 by default.

413472 2005-12-17 23:28:00 Whilst waiting for a reboot I was thinking that i yesterday reinstalled the audio drivers on the motherboard from the ASUS disk. This problem could not stem from that action could it? Almost feels looking backward that I lost these audio drivers when I installed the wireless card...... Could there be a interaction? hotkiwi (6379)

Not unless the soundcard and wireless card are conflicting now .

And there's a X or ! in device manager, for either now .

413474 2005-12-17 23:34:00 Copied the settings of the laptop, but still no internet access, afraid have to give up, kids to sport.

I want to thank you all so much for your help, shows us in what a great country we (still) leave.
Wish you all a great X-mas a nd a very cool start of the new year 9don't drink too much)

Tonigt I might disable the audio drivers and reinstall the Belkin card and let u know

Cheers

413475 2005-12-19 10:56:00 Guess what??

Nothing worked, so phoned with Belkin in their call centre in India........ After 45 minutes waiting in a queue of 7 customers the guy tells me that it is a common problem since the PCI pre N Belkin cards are incompatible with ASUS motherboards !!!! He gave me a link to download drivers from, the maker of the chipset for Belkin: RALinktech.com.
Guess what? You download an exe file, upon execution of that file the program asks for drivers it then can't find.
What a mess !!!!!
