If you hit it at the right time, the pause key will freeze the display.
Press the spacebar to continue.

RMVIEW/IRQ might show it, but NIC drivers don't usually register with the
Resource Manager.

Are you sure? That's the model number of the Linksys PCMCIA card. This
is your desktop? Isn't it?

Can't say. You could try it. I doubt it matters. See below...

I'm not sure what you did, but it should have been full of ping data. You
might try again.

>Oh yes, the led light does NOT flicker on the router when I ping it.

Are you sure? There are usually 2 leds or 1 bi-color led. One will flash
for receive, the other will flash for transmit. If it's bi-color, the
color will change.

>Is there any point to uninstalling the lan and reinstalling it?

What do you mean? Do you mean uninstall/reinstall TCP/IP? I doubt the
TCP/IP or MPTS installation is the problem.

If I understood what you have said, It looks more like a DHCP
configuration problem or possible a TCP/IP fixpak level problem. If you
can ping the router when manually configured, that pretty much says the
card and drivers are working. This also says you really should be able to
see the laptop using Peer when going through the router. This is assuming
both NIC's are running at the same speed.

FWIW, what is displayed when you type:

inetver

on the command line.
