Re: Newbie IP Conflict

Hi I have just purchased a Netgear modem and FVS 338 firewall to
connect our network to the internet (old router packed up, all
working ok before this happened) I set up the modem to connect to the
internet (without the firewall to make sure it would connect) and all
the computers connected to the network lost their connections to
mapped drives on the server. When restarting the server it comes up
with an error message that there is an IP address conflict. How do I
go about sorting this problem?
The modem connects to a Netgear switch and the sever runs on Windows
Sever 2003 Std edition.

Also the sever has 2 network cards which works OK with them both
plugged into the switch until you plug the modem into the switch then
you get an error message on the 2nd network card on the server which
basically disables this card. What do I need to do to set it up
properly?
Please don't forget I am new to this so please don't get to technical.

Thanks Bob

Well, I'll try, but this is technical stuff. Who set up the original
server/network?

Did you set the Netgear firewall's LAN IP to match the LAN IP you were using
on your old router/device?

Are you using ActiveDirectory?

Why does your server have two NICs?

Post an unedited ipconfig /all from the server and one workstation. Do this
in a command prompt -

ipconfig /all >c:\filename.txt

....then copy/paste the output here, clearly labeling which is the server &
which is the workstation.
