LAST EDITED ON Nov-01-01 AT 03:00 PM (GMT)Here's what i've got:
4 computers on an ethernet network using TCP/IP
all plugged into a hub.
IPs are all 192.168.123.XXX (I'll change this to better numbers after I get this problem solved)
all subnets = 255.255.255.0
SMC Barricade (firmware 1.92e) plugged into hub and connected to a 56K Sportster external modem.
Can ping everything.
Use AOL (sorry) as ISP.
Barricade settings are:
Primary setup:
LAN IP Address = 192.168.123.254
WAN Type = Dial Up Network
Dial-up telephone = local phone number for AOL
dial-up account = my AOL screen name
dial-up password = blank

Secondary DNS 0.0.0.0
Maximum Idle time 300 seconds Auto-reconnect = not checked

Miscellaneous Items:
