I have a problem with a small wireless network that is awaiting broadband to be installed. Router is an adsl router, but one pc has dial up connection and i want to share this with the other pcs.

The main problem is that if i disable dhcp on the server the clients lose their wireless connection to the router.

I know that i need my internet connection sharing pc to act as a dhcp server, and therefore cannot have two dhcp servers running on the network.

Does anyone know if there any way around this?

Thanks in advance.

Andrew
