It's a cable modem, not DSL, and even if the computers can't see each other, which is most of the time, I can always get on the Internet. This is the reason I've been mystified by what's going on. All the settings must be correct because when it does work, it's fine. I have replaced everything, cables, router, and bought my own cable modem. That doesn't leave too many choices, especially if I can always get a good, fast Internet connection. Kind of rules out the NIC's as being bad. It was suggested that I just go buy another router, but at $75 a clip, that's not really an option. Another one may not work either. What's left to try aside from dropping a C note on a different brand of router?
