Unless you are running an alternate setup you have not disclosed, the router will be the gateway, so the address of 192.168.1.1 is correct for the gateway settings, and should also be used on the main computer.

So, the info for that one should be

IP 192.168.1.2

Subnet 255.255.255.0

Gateway 192.168.1.1

I tried that already... Still not working.... The first computer is the one who dial-up.

*Note: That is a modem router which I need to dial-up to the boardband first.

What is not working please? Your initial question was because you were getting IP conflict errors. It was assumed this was due to the router having the same address as your pc. Have these errors now stopped? And do you perhaps mean that you now cannot get the internet? Please explain.

Also, it would be helpful if you could let us know what type of router/modem you are actually using, and what your "broadband" connection actually is. All the routers I have come accross for home use usually keep the connection open permanently.

Thanks.

Modem router: Realtek RTL8139 Family PCI Fast Ethernet NIC

Boardband: Streamyx [ http://www.streamyx.com ]

The other two computer cannot access to the internet. Sorry for that. Well, it work SOMETIMES when I set up like that [ The picture ] but sometime not. But when I auto config all the IP on all computer, only one [ Dial-up computer ] can use access the internet.

Or it's firewall cause the problem? The modem router and hub have no configuration.

Hi again wongpk, right as far as I can tell the Realtek is only an NIC (network Interface Card) and would have no direct bearing on your internet connection.

Next, your diagram shows your incoming internet connection connecting to a modem/router, which in turn connects to a hub. Is this actually correct (if it is, the router will need to have some sort of configuration, but you claim that there is none), because I am starting to suspect that what you have is a modem connected to your computer which you are then trying to share using your network card through a hub.

If this is the case, then it is still possible to share the connection, but you will need to do it in a different way. Please advise with an accurate description of your setup.

Thanks.

Yes, the RTL8139 is a NIC chipset.

In accordance with the original configuration, the router will need to have ip: 192.168.1.1

The primary computer will need ip 192.168.1.2 and will need to have a gateway set to 192.168.1.1 - just like all the other PC's. Could you clarify your topology a bit please?
