Demetri,

Did you try using static addressing? 192.168.0.1; 192.168.0.2; etc. worked
for me once when I had a problem. Aslo, if you can weed far enough into the
help menu, there are some good suggestions, but it takes quite awhile to get
past all the obvious stuff.

That's very strange that TCP/IP doesn't work. Mine was running with only
that for awhile. I only added netbui when I swithed to 2K.

Keep trying!
