Hi
I have a home network where I assign ip addresses for the network
computers, and have wep enabled on my network.
I yesterday tried to access a free network in a local cafe but was able to
connect to the network but not gain internet access.
I found it was due to the network card having an assigned ip address. When I
adjusted it to find an ip address it all worked, however when I got home it
would not then log on to my network.
I have tried placing the ip addresses in the alternative page but this does
not work as well.
I know I must be doing something really stupid, could someone please advise.
Thanks
