A Classs C is 255 IP address, aka 255.255.255.0 represents a full Class C.

You own a full Class C?  Uhmm,..I would check with the ISP and make sure that subnet mask is correct.  You break apart a Class C down to 255.255.255.252 (two IP addresses).

why? whats the deal with teh Linksys router?

thats what I have and I have the same problem.
All machines connect to the net no prob but none can see each other even with file& print sharing enabled.

Thinking I doubt its the ISP as I know some of my neighbors have their machines networked no prob.

BTW yes I did use the setup software

Skuzzy, speakeasy confirms that as my netmask.

Still doesn't explain why I can't communicate within the lan though?
