Hi, i have a efficient 5871 router and idsl connection.I am unsure as to what numbers to put into netcardconfig.here's my setup on winxp-diff numbers of course but u get idea-

ip address- 123.123.123.124
subnet-255.255.255.255
default gateway- 124.124.124.124
preferred dns server- 125.125.125.125
secondary dns server- 125.125.125.126

what numbers go where in netcardconfig?
the default gateway is the router...please help.thanks

ip address- 123.123.123.124 - IP
subnet-255.255.255.255 -Netmask
default gateway- 124.124.124.124 -Gateway
preferred dns server- 125.125.125.125 -Nameserver
secondary dns server- 125.125.125.126 -Nameserver

In addition the Network setting would be 123.123.123.0 and the Broadcast would be 123.123.123.255 and when you get to the last dialog for the nameservers if you want to use both of your DNS then use 125.125.125.125 ; 125.125.125.126 on the only line available in the dialog.
