"...........If the IP Address says 169.254.X.X (Xs could be anything), this indicates that you are not getting an address from the router. If it is 192.168.X.X, then this should be a non-issue."

HardDrive,
I did check the router addresses. On the two not connecting, the addresses started out with 169.254.xxx.... The computers that connected had 192.168.xxx....... addresses.

Thus, the two aren't receiving valid router addresses? BTW, these work when connected directly (one at a time) into the DSL router.

May I confirm this as a router issue or is there something else?

Thanks,
Sherwood
