when fedora machine is connected to the internet via network windiws machines cannot


I have just installed Fedora on a computer on our family network. It connects to the internet via an Orico ASR-8400 adsl 4 port router. The installation was not problematical, and it found the internet without problems, however when it is turned on the windows 2000 computers connected to the router cannot find websites, or will only connect intermmitently. I have tried disabling the firewall but this makes no difference. The windows machines are all using fixed ip settings.

Is the linux box using DHCP or a static IP address? If using DHCP then change the linux box to a static IP and see what happens.

Does this happen with all of the windows PC's at the same time? Can you ping the windows boxes successfully when this happens?
