I've been following your woes and the only suggestion I have is to=20
forget DHCP. Do you have to option to manually assign IP addresses to=20
your computers via your router? Have you tried that? When I give my=20
Newton its own IP, I never have problems, only when trying DHCP. I=20
suspect that the Newton's DHCP implementation is not so hot (like in=20
the Mac OS before OS 9), and modern DHCP servers just don't like the=20
Newton. That is my suspicion, so, if you can, try assigning IP=20
addresses manually, and see if it works.
