integrating router and older network

all comps are xp:

i just got a dlink wireless router (awesome)

anywho: I previously had a phoneline network setup in house.


pc1 downstairs w/cable modem
pc2 upstairs
pc3 upstairs

laptop connected to pc2 by crossover cable

so i got the router and pc1 has internet along with laptop (wireless)

however: the ethernet on pc1 takes up the 192.168.0.1

when i try to enable internet sharing on the ethernet on pc1 it says the router is already using that ip ^ and it won't share internet..

any ideas what i can do to get phoneline network going again
 
Might be that 192.168.0.1 is already linked to something else.

Get into the Router change the DHCP band to something like 192.168.0.10 to 192.168.0.15 and reboot.
