The TP is assigned 192.168.1.229 - wired cat5; .230 is wireless

I'm using acpi 3.08. I think I will grab 3.07 and see if that gets
me to the wps.

Well, all I have to do is activate that option and it overwrites
resolv2. When I initially set this up it took me quite some time
to figure out what was happening. It is probably the correct thing
to do if you are using dhcp & ddns.

Typing from memory, it is the gateway ip address. Since I can't
boot at the moment I can't check that. However, I can say that
when I turned it on this morning, w/o the wire, when I finally got
it booted (after 3 crashes) I decided to try the option box for dns
once again since all evidence pointed to not getting dns. Before
doing this I saved the resolv2, so know that this morning I had a
fully populated resolv2. After saving it, I checked again and it
had only 1 entry, the entry I made in the option box.

That would be great, and it would clear up some confusion from
folks like me.
Another point, I notice that XP allows more than 3 entires.
Checking just now (booted to maintenance console) the saved version
I have has 5 entires in it. I don't think this would be a problem,
if anything, it should ignore entries over 3 if it matters.
