Looks like you were very close.

When the laptop was sat in the office next to our demo room, it looks like
it picked up the wireless extender from the adjacent demo room which
doesn't
seem to give know about ip addresses issued by the DHCP server - have not
got round to working out why it doesn't work down there. All our bits of
kit
in the demo room we have set statically :)

Move laptop upstairs near the proper WAP and all is well.



Thanks




Dean.

Dean,



Bit obvious and not sure it can happen without you knowing but has it
jumped
onto someone else's wifi?



Is the gateway address still what you'd expect for you router?

Bit of an odd one this.

New laptop running WinXP

Setup wireless and gets on our network fine.

Initially all is good - can see internal shares and internet.

After 10 minutes it suddenly cant see any internal shares... but can still
see the internet ???

Once this has happened i cant ping any internal IP addresses all just
timeout.

Any suggestions appreciated as i cant figure this at all - strangley i cant
ping the router, but the laptop must be able to see it as it knows where
the
internet is ?




Cheers



Dean.
