Try opening command prompt and type ipconfig /release and ipconfig /renew. you can also manually put in the IP information if this keeps happening.

Make sure that all 4 pc's are set to get their IP automatically (through DHCP). My guess is that one of them has a static IP that the router is trying to assign to a different PC.

If the above suggestions do not resolve your issue, log into the router's configuration page from a WIRED host (if you have one), and make sure that the DHCP pool (available address pool) has enough IP addresses available. Each PC needs a UNIQUE IP address within the LAN to communicate with the router.

Is this the router??
D-Link DI-824VUP? D-Link DI-824VUP High-Speed 2.4GHz (802.11g) Wireless Router
Ok, from work, I am logged into my D-Link WBR-2310 router.... With mine, after the login screen, I am at the SETUP page. I then go to "Network settings". Once there, I look for DHCP server settings. You then have to make sure there are enough address available for each host you want to have connected at the same time. | |

A moment of silence please for the now dead router. it died and decided not to work anymore. Now my new one is a modem and router combo. This time the problem is my desktop. It cannot connect to the new network!!! Personaly i think that the problem is my wireless chip or driver which is LinkSys. I've already reinstalled in twice so now i have wireless internet connection 3 hurray!!!. plz help!
The new router is DSL-2740B

| Re: IP Problem
I would say it is VERY likely that the Linksys card you have may not be compatible with that 802.11n router.... Is going wired completly out of the equation?

No it isnt but i'm not sure if my mother board can, when i tryed to install the modem to my pc it couldn't find so the host pc is my brother's. If i wire it to my pc now will it work without having to install it?
Also is there a card you could suggest?
