When i click on the internet explorer and go to any http://www.xxxxx.xxx, The
only error i get is this pages cannot be displayed, it just imes out. there
is eight ports on the Linksys router, i whent as far as moving the cables to
other positions. When you ping you get the "Just 'request timed out".
As i mentioned before, when you use ipconfig/all "all the dns , gateway,
subnet, etc is all the same except the ip for the individual workstations,
and it is set using DHCP.
