Re: Network gateway changed in DHCP and Network Properties

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hmmm... As Lanwench asked, does the wireless router have DHCP enabled?

This 2003 SB Standard. The wireless router is used as an access point. A
Cisco PIX connects us to the internet and is the normal gateway. Below is
the
current ipconfig info from the server.

My problem is that somehow the gateway on the server's network card and
the
gateway being handed out by the server's dhcp was changed. Is there one
place
to go that would change both of these? I changed these back and solved the
problem but wondered how it could have been changed.

Give us a rundown of your physical network setup.
Please post the results of an ipconfig /all for the server.
Is this SBS 2003 Premium (with ISA 2000/2004) or Standard?
Is the wireless router supposed to be acting as an Access Point for LAN
users?

I have a 2003 sbs. Yesterday suddenly the gateway in network properties
and
the one handed out by the server's dhcp changed to point to wireless
router
on our network. Is there a wizard that could have been run to change
both?

I thought the only way these could change was
at the console
via terminal service
or using mmc

Thanks for your help
