more network problems

Hi Again,
Yes, try what I suggested when you are connected directly to the cable 
modem rather than through your router.  Another thing you could try is 
setting up your router so that your Lan addresses are static rather than 
dynamic.  If you did that though you would have to re-configure any of 
your WINDBLOWS machines on your LAN.
