I noticed that you had 198.168.xx.xx for your windows IP. but the gateway is 192.168.xx. So I suspect the first is a typo and it should be 192.168.xx.xx. That could cause a problem for sure. I make this typo often so it is easy to do.

Certainly an unfortunate problem brought on by an attempt to conceal IP addresses, which with private NAT addresses like addresses in the 198.168 range or the 10 range is completely pointless. I don't want to debate the foolishness of trying to conceal real Internet IP addresses, but it is crazy to try to conceal private, unroutable addresses like 192.168 addresses, and if this was done it was a big mistake. On the other hand, the reference to 198.168.xxx.xxx as a group of addresses is completely valid, where xxx means any address in the set. But, of course, xxx is never actually entered in netcardconfig or other utilities and it is better to be specific when saying what an IP address or mask is.Quote:

But when I get home I will be one of my homeland security people! Then again we are more or less an unsinkable Aircraft Carrier for the US anyway.
