We are sharing a cable modem conncetion between three systems, two are 98se and the other is Windows ME. The two Win98 systems get internet fine but the ME system does not? Any ideas? The night before all three were working fine but now the ME system has lost its connection. Seems strange to me but any tips are appreciated.
 
First off, check to make sure all cables are secure. Then you should check to see if there are any changes in the settings as far as ip and subnets are concerned. Then I would check to verify the cables are good. After that try a new NIC, and as for after that... I dunno... never had anything beyond that...
 
OK solved the problem but we have another. My @home connection can only be shared 3 ways. The problem we have now is that the one computer dosnt recognize a Lan game in UT. All the computers see each other on the network but the ME system still cant join a lan game for UT. If we try playing a LAN game of CS he can see that but he cant see a lan game in UT. All the network settings are correct so we are really puzzled on this one.
 
UT can be bitchy for lan play... rather than going to "find lan game" just go to "open location" (or something like that) and type in the IP address of the server manually
