We have a weird setup here. We are using DirecWay satellite internet and recently had someone come in who re-configured a bunch of stuff. We are using an XP machine (192.168.0.51) running OrbitNet as the proxy for the other computers. All of the computers that are hard-wired to the network are working fine. They have the following TCP/IP properties:

IP Address 192.168.0.x (none repeating)
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway 192.168.0.51
DNS 66.82.4.8

We have a Linksys wireless access point (WAP11) and before everything worked fine. If I copy the exact TCP/IP settings to the wireless lan card and try to browse a page, nothing happens. I can connect to computers on the network and everything, but no web pages. I tried changing the DNS server to that of the XP Proxy (192.168.0.51). When I did this, it would resolve the IP address, but not connect to any web pages. The wireless access point settings are as follows:

IP 192.168.0.251
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.0.51

If you can provide any help, it would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Jon
