Dont really have access to a laptop right now. Does it help any that all I did to get on with my computer is plug the card in and turn on the machine? No configuration had to be done at all. It was just there

So how do I check if its secure or not?

What do you mean by roaming and mac address? And this is a bump as well :)

There are 3 puters in the house. The main with the router, my brothers (right next door) and mine both with PCI adapters. There are 2 portable phones in the house as well

It's pretty much a Direct LOS with just a couple typical house walls in between with maybe 100 ft in between. I'm running a D-link DWL-520 PCI Adapter and letting XP do the configuration. The router is a Linksys, but I'm not sure of the model number. Both are 2.4GHz and 802.11b platforms

I've just moved back in with my parents and they are running a Wireless network with a Cable net connection. I installed my wireless PCI card and everything works great.

Another note....I went into command prompt and did ipconfig on the front end machine. For the ethernet IP it came up with 192.168.0.1 which I thought was the default LAN IP for the back end machines. The second computer came up with an IP of 169.254.241.113. Each computer could ping itself using...

Not sure of IP addresses for each one but I tried pinging using the computer names and i get "Ping request could not find host" I'm thinkin you're on to something....... :)

I have a very simple network involving just 2 computers. Each computer has a Linksys NC100 Ethernet card with a crossover cable for the connection. The network has worked beautifully for more than 2 years until last night when neither computer would see the other anymore. Pulling up workgroup...

AMD Anthlon XP 1800 256 RAM GeForce 4 MX420 Unreal Tournament 2003 After playing the game for awhile, every now and then, it will crash out to a blue screen saying "Driver irq not less or equal... Beginning dump of physical memory" Any ideas on what is causing this and how to fix it would...
