Ok, the problem is as follows: I have four computers at home. One is hardwired to the wireless d-link router. The other three are as follows:

*one desktop wireless connected.

*two laptops with g cards to connect to the xtreme d-link router.

The problems has just recently started, as i tried to understand how to use a network. I forgot that the router gives the whole network an IP address that will be used "outside" of the lan i got at home.

So, i tried to setup the network using that stupid wizard and i created several networks describing one computer sharing the connection and so on and so forth. I can't even remember what type of network setups i did besides that one.

So now, the problem is as follows:

My hardwired desktop is functioning ok, with its own ip assigned by the router.

As for the laptops, one was working just fine, but it broke until i get a new LCD.

As for the other laptop, it won't work, it won't connect, it says "wireless connection 5" (wtf is that), and when i click on what connections are available it says the currenct wireless network i setup.

So then when i type the wep key and click on the eee.ix notice, it won't connect at all. It is dead.

Then what i tried is connect this laptop wired to the router, but this time the dhcp server is assigning a private ip address (168.###.####).

I have checked everything, but nothing. Could anyone please tell me what to do with those stupid network setups i did and how to erase them and start from scratch?

Please help me, i thank you a lot!!!!
