I had a LAN with 2 PC's connected via Ethernet cross cable and a 56K modem
board on one of the PC's (with LAN address 192.168.0.1) to connect to the
Internet and share the connection with the other PC (LAN address
192.168.0.2). Now I I've got an adsl connection (wifi with a router) but I'd
like to keep the old wired connection as a backup. After the LAN
reconfiguration I noticed that the router has been given LAN address
192.168.0.1, then I was to obliged to move the PC addresses to 192.168.0.2
and .3 - then the old Internet connection works only from the PC carrying
the modem board and not from the other, I get this warning message "LAN
adapter will use IP=192.168.0.1" and then "error 799 impossible to enable
shared access"
someone can help?

Configure the router to use a different IP address, such as
192.168.1.1.

Look up the router's manufacturer's web site and locate the user guide/
manual. In therem you should find how to access the router's internal
configuration settings and change the network IP address scheme form
192.168.0.xxx to a different one.

ok but let the router have address 192.168.0.1, I don't understand why the
56k modem connection on 192.168.0.2 doesn't work for 192.168.0.3... I don't
think it is a problem of addresses, the problem is to share TWO remote
connection among the PC's in the LAN
