When I enable WEP and change the SSID.

I then change it on each computer to match, but then only 1 computer at a time will connect to the router!

AM I a dip**** or what? WHat am I doing wrong.

Are you usnig DHCP on the LAN side? If so, does each machine pull a valid IP address?

Can all machines connect, but only one at a time?

Each has a valid ip address and each is set for DHCP and yes only one works at a time.

What do you mean by 'connects' - if you're using the routers's dhcp and all have ip addresses, then I'd say you are connecting to the router. Be more specific about what isn't working

What is the ip range you have set for your dhcp clients (on the router)

As a quick test, you could set the ip addresses and dns setting manually for each machine.
