new Linksys + new Leopard, good; add old PC, bad
 |
I had a problematic XP laptop with a problematic Linksys wireless router. I got a new Leopard laptop and a new Linksys wireless router that work fine together. Now, I tried to add the old XP so someone else can have/use it, and I will eventually migrate files then reformat/reinstall the PC, but don't have time for that now - just need the network. Any ideas?
Thanks!
Thanks!

not enough information...if you are having problems getting the old XP working on the internet, please go to a DOS window and type ipconfig /all and post the results here.

Mmmmmm, I'd start with connecting the old PC directly as possible - bypassing any router(s) etc. Just to establish a baseline of connectivity.
