I found the response below today online to a question I had. For some reason I never got the mail. I am not quite clear on what "DHCP + DFG + 2DNS entries" means when calculating the IP to set for the router:
Thanks

Here is what I tried. When I put the machine directly on an AT&T IP connection (12.147.X.Y) everything worked fine. Same with Comcast on a direct link. The times I am having problems is when our router is hooked up to a Comcast IP (70.88.X.Y) and assigns 192.168.5.X addresses to our machines. So when I was doing the above from 192.168.5.27 going through the router through Comcast is when I had the problem.
--- Try this: For the NIC on your Comcast router set its ip to one that the dhcp in the router gives out + DFG + 2 DNS entries. In order to have it static. I see lots of routers with your problem.
