What's your DHCP range?

I assume you mean the GS.
It is default.

DHCP server enabled
Starting IP address: 192.168.1.100
Max number of users: 50

I set G to 192.168.1.10


With the G turned off, can you ping its address and get any response (telltale sign)?
I couldn't get any response with it turned ON.

However, with one - and only one - device powered on, you *should*
get a response. If the G is OFF, and you were to get a response on
that address, it indicates that something *else* is listening on it.
That would, therefore, point to an address conflict when the G is
turned ON.

After ctrl C it said 50 sends, no response.

Also, try flushing your arp cache before pinging:

arp -f (OS/2; I can't recall Windows, but instead of "flush," the
command "deletes all" - perhaps arp /d *)

With which routers powered?


No, SSID broadcast in the GS.

That is on by default.

On the status page, you can see all connected devices.

This thread is moving rapidly from OT to TOT.

If connecting two OS/2 machines together wireless is off topic, what is on topic?
