First of all, I'm glad your helping. I'm not real smart
with computers.

When I reference the "host" I am referencing the
computer with the shared internet connection.The IP
config prior shown, was taken from the host computer.
This host computer is on a dial up, and has an cabled
router (Belkin F5D5130-5)connected. Then the wirless
router (Belkin F5D6130)connected to the cabled router.
All clients connected to the Cabled router can get on the
internet just fine. We have 2 clients using wireless, and
one of them will not connect to the internet.
  Last night I connected the client computer to the
cabled router (removing the wireless path) and it still
doesnt connect to the internet. File swapping always
works.

The client computer that can not connect is as follows...

Windows IP Configuration
   Host Name................Manufacturing
   Primary DNS Suffix.......
   Node Type................Mixed
   IP Routing Enabled.......No
   WINS Proxy Enabled.......No
Ethernet Adapter LAN 3
   Media State..............Media Disconnected
   Description..............Intel(R)Pro/100+alert on
lan*Management adapter
   Physical Address.........XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX

  What do you think?
