<<   I think we need a bit more detailed information:

 1.  When the machines worked, with RoadRunner, how were they connected?
 --- with a router one directly cabled the 98SE with a wireless
 2.  Do they work with AOL Broadband at all?
 --- the XP machine works (Iconnects) only if the cable modem is directly
plugged into it and not through the router
 3.  Where/how are you plugging in the router?  Have you used it before?
 --- The SCN router is receiving cable from Tim Warner's NY RoadRunner and
cabled USP to the XP box which replaced another 98SE box and then wireless to a
98SE box in my daughters room
 4.  Each of the PCs will have an IP address, and the router will likely have
 at least two.  Which IP address is changing, wnd what makes this a problem
 for you?
--- Aol-Time Warner say that the 192..... address s/b 10.....
its 192 when the router is plugged  in and changes to the 'right' 10... when
the cable is directly connected to the XP box
