Replace the NIC. That may be the problem. Other then checking to see if you have two machines with the same IP Address. I had a issue with this one time and tried everything and finally replaced the NIC and it worked fine.

Check to see all computers are set for DHCP, and the range is wide enough for your system. Also make a check of the MAC address making sure you didn't clone one into the other. DHCP is kept by mac address, duplicates will cause problems.

I am using a D-Link USB device (DWL-G122) and had many problems trying to get on to internet. I sent ipconfig\all and diagnostic reports to D-Link to no avail.
I reloaded XP and IE7 with all latest updates using a land line connection.
Still no good, in the end I downloaded the drivers from the D-Link web site and BINGO - IT WORKED. :bounce:
This may not solve all problems but it is worth a try as some drivers supplied with the equipment may not be the latest issue.
