Please tell me if there is another newsgroup where I should post this
question.
I am running a pair of Windows 2000 Servers on a small network (sharing AD and
DNS). One of the two servers is also the router. Both are set to run DHCP,
covering different address space. There is one laptop that joins the network
wirelessly (802.11g) through a standard Wi-Fi access point.
Every day when that computer turns on, the whole rest of the network loses
communication with the Router, which is one of the 2 servers. After a couple
of minutes, it comes back and everyone has access. The problem seems to be
limited to that one laptop joining the network.
What on Earth could cause this? How can a computer joining the network break
access to the router? I'm not even sure where to begin to look for the
problem.
Thank you for any help,
Colin
