I'm not sure I am following, did you not create a static IP number ??
Did you select the box in the instructions that say "Find Staic IP"

I'm not sure I understand this static IP thing. I don't know if the other computer has a static IP.

When I did the ipconfig /all, the DNS server was 192.168.1.1

While the DHCP, and default gateway were 192.168.2.1

Yep, so what you do is fill in the boxes with those numbers, where the instructions tell you to (it's best to write down all the info from your ipconfig screen) once they are all filled in you click on the "find static IP" and a IP number will appear, then you go back to the port forwarding instructions page and enter that number into the box it tells you to and you go from there...

ok, I'm trying to do this static IP thing. In my router setup page, there are Static DNS 1, and Static DNS 2, both have 192.168.1.1 in them.

There is also a static DNS 3 and WN, but nothing is in those boxes

When I type the ipconfig/all, my default gateway is: 192.168.2.1, and subnet mask is 255.255.255.0

I will continue on with the tutoiral and see what happens

ok I jsut went through the static Ip thing. All was good until the very end where I go to network connections and stuff. the button was checked on find automaticlaly, and so there was nothing in the IP, Subnet, and defualt gateway boxes just liek the tutorial said, but when I went to manual, there was still nothing in those boxes, and thge tut said that there would be numbers in there that I could write down so if things went bad I could set it back to the way it was.


Anyways, I still enterd the static Ip and stuff in, but it gave me a warning:

"The default gateway is not on the same network segment (subnet) that is defined by the IP address and subnet mask. Do you want to save this configuration?"


What should I do? When I entered the info into that tut to give me an static IP it said I should use 207.179.242.136

Also I only have one name server (DNS) in my router. Is that normal?

If it is any help, my comp, and my xbox 360 receive the wireless signal. My Sisters comp is the one actually hooked up to the router, and the ADSL modem is also hooked into the router

ok, that static IP guide is bogus. I did everything in it, and put in the Static Ip it told me to, and after that I couldn't even log onto the internet! Had to change everything back to the way it was. WTF man!! This is getting very aggrevating. Why am I the only one with a problem like this?

hello, can anyone respond?
