Heya all...
I have a server built running win2K server.. and set up with DNS, DHCP, and active directory and a domain name (not official just for LAN purposes) and I have 3 other PC's connected to my D-link wireless router... 2 of them wireless and the server and my main rig.. wired with cat5... m router has built in dhcp and built in static dhcp IP what i want to do is use my 2K server box to run the DHCP and DNS stuff and just use the D-link wireless router for wireless-LAN access and for it's built in switch.. but every time i disable the dhcp in the router itself.. i lose all connectivity.. even with my server running dns, dhcp, and AD... I've called tech support and they basically told me that my router can't do this... are they right? and do i need a separate switch? or is there something I'm not doing to my win2K server set up?
