hi, in the computer hub of my university deptt. we are connected to 20 computers through lan. and out of the 20, 5 or 6 of them have internet access .we can access internet even when the server is switched off courtesy the router.Now if i want to access internet from one of the computers where there is no internet access until now... how can i go about setting up the internet access ? i can get the ip addresses of the computers from the instructor. please help?

Click to expand...

Which OS u r using ?? and u needto have admin user access to confiure the System to access the router as Getway !!

for Windows XP, go to Network connections, now there Right Click on the Network Connection ICON, Local Area Network !!

Now here Dont make any change to IP address or subment !!!

Just enter the IP address of the router as default getway and enter ur ISP DNS as DNS server address !!!
