The desktop used to be plugged in directly into the DSL router, but now is plugged into another router with more ports and this router is plugged into the DSL Router (which is also wireless, that the laptop connects to)

I think you said earlier that you were not using DHCP on the desktops attached to the Linksys router. If you have specified IP addresses for them they will not match the ones the DSL router is handing out -- that would be the Internet side of the Linksys router. Switch to DHCP or change the specified addresses to match whatever the laptop is picking up.Cut-Throat said:I think I may go with the Linksys Hub. They have one for about $25. Seems like the simple way to go. I don't think I could screw this one up and most of my current settings would probably remain the same.
