I have 3 computers on my network. PC wired to the router and 2 laptops on
wireless. The network works fine. All computers see each other problem is
the pc's wired connection can't find the internet. Its getting an IP
address from the routers DHCP server an can log onto the laptops..just can't
find the internet. Any suggestions are appreciated.

First verfiy that the computers settings are set to obtain and IP address
automatically. Next can you see the default gateway on your PC's. This
should be the ip address of your router. you can go to the command line and
type "ipconfig /all" and there should be a list of the network settings on
that PC. This confirms that it has a default gateway address, now try
pinging the default gateway's IP address. . Can your wireless PC get out to
the internet?
