okay....
I have 2 computers. My main computer is connected to a belkin ADSL modem with built in 802.11g wireless router via ethernet (which i communicate and change settings via my web browser).
The other computer (no.2) has a wireless network card installed and working fine.
I had it all connected to a point where i could access the internet on both comuters but not share files, and i could communicate with the router.
So i tried some trickery to get this file share to work. this involved messing about with the "file and print sharing for microsoft networks" and "clients for microsoft networks", installing clients and service, in the local area connection
When i did this, i found that i could no longer communicate with the router via my web browser and not access the internet.
I also noticed that under my TCP/IP settings in address type, my connection was an "automatic private address" instead of "assigned DHCP".
I thought this would be the problem. so i scouted around the web to find answers and found things like using ipconfig (via cmd in the run command). but no luck. got message like "cannot contact DHCP".
I tried reinstalling but no luck........WHAT CAN I DO???????/
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!
