Click on "start" and then "run" and type "command" and hit
the "OK" button. Then, from the command line type
"winipcfg" and get back to us / me with the results. It
sounds as if you may not have the gateway configured or
something... I'll be sending you a snapshot of how my
winipcfg looks (I'm using the 10.x.x.x network instead of
the 192 network.... but the same info applies.) I don't
want to clutter the list with a png file. :-)
