Hi
im trying to troubleshoot a network problem that is affecting the entire LAN.....
We have a network with 10-20 nodes connected,, in a star topology, connected to a D-link switch (DES-1016R+) that connects to a 3com 3C857 gateway that acts as a DHCP Server that also manange internet connection from the cable modem.
In our LAN we a have printers in various locations connected to D-link DP-300+ Printer server, that are connected to D-link 10/100fast Ethernet Switch"s and last D-link switch (DES-1016R+) that connects to a 3com 3C857 gateway,,,all printers and computers in the LAN are connected via this infrastructure.
Recently we have had a server added in our LAN to act as a file server and application server running W S 2003 with a domain Add 192.168.0.1,
the problem is that all PC on the LAN loss connection by automatically obtaining the server domain 192.168.0.1 instead of 3com 3C857 gateway IP 192.168.1.1 where all computer connect to.
I would like to know if this symptoms are caused by network hardware inability to to handle the server, or the server configuration.
IP problem that is affecting the entire LAN
