I have a router coming to with a static IP address for internet access. I have that connected to a Linksys switch. Also connected to that switch is a NIC in a PC and a hub is connected to the Uplink port on the switch. The hub is used because it is an old server with a BNC connector for access to the server. So, now I need to be able to access the server and the internet with the same NIC. I am new to this. I use a terminal emulation program on my PC when I access the server. If I put the IP address of my PC on the NIC, I can access the server, but not the internet. I put choose "Obtain IP address automatically" , I can access the internet, but not the server when I launch the emulation package. Can anyone guide me through this. I am installing T1's next week and I really need to figure this out hopefully with a little help here. I have been using CSU/DSU's and multiplexers up until now, not even ethernet-RS232, so I'm a little lost on the setup for this NIC.
thankx

Jump to PostIt sounds as if your server and router are on different IP networks or subnetworks.
What are the IP addresses of your Server, your router, and your PC?
What IP Address do you get when you obtain an IP Address automatically?
to find this information, type ipconfig …
Jump to Postwelcome indeed, it's been around for a while now ;)
