Please reply to this message in the news group (not by E-mail) with
more information to help other people understand the problem.

What you mean by "the internet connection sticks to option 1". What
is "option 1", and where do you see it? What exactly does it say?
What is "option 2", and what does it say?

What driver are you unloading? What card are you unplugging?

With the 1394 card enabled, open a command prompt window and type:

   ipconfig /all >ipconfig.txt

Then, copy and paste the contents of the "ipconfig.txt" file into your
news group reply

I don't know of any way that a 1394 card in one computer could have
any effect on the other computers. Are you saying that all of the
computers have trouble connecting to the router?
