I have an interesting problem. I have been asked to troubleshoot the following setup (bear in mind that I am not a techie anymore, but people generally ask me to do things because I am a total sucker or something)
The server PC has the iBurst terminal and a Micronet Wireless Router.
There are three other machines that need to be connected to the server machine. They all have big arials and wireless cards, they're all telling me they have good signal. They're also connected (simultaneously) on a LAN.
This worries me because the Wireless and LAN connections have exactly the same IP, subnet mask and Gateway. And the same DNS servers. Surely this would cause a conflict? Well, disabling them didn't help...
If I try ping webpages, I get errors (obviously) which range from 'webpage does not exist' to 'Ping Timeout'. If I try IE I get all manner of responses which range from DNS errors to MSN search redirect errors.
Has anyone here ever had a successful iBurst network?? I know it's not endorsed and it's probably for a really good reason - I know there's probably something really small that I've forgotten. Apart from not being able to check if the router has the right MTU setting, I am quite sure I have done it all?
Anyone?
