problems with dividing internet access with D-Link DI-604

Did you try saying to router that you have Dynamic IP? Maybe thay run DHCP although they tell you your IP.

Yes, I tried it today but without any success.

OK, finally I've got it!!!. I've reseted router and run wizard again. I only cloned MAC. I left rest of the settings unchanged.
And internet works slightly slower (half a sec) but it's working.
Then I run router config again and disabled DHCP server, set static adress in a client and it's still working!!!. Thanks for all Your replies. I'm very, very happy

Yes this does matter which you pick because of the dhcp pool that is being used by dhcp server. If you chose not to use dhcp than you are going to want to disable it on the router otherwise its possible for 2 systems to be using the same ip address. However this is unlikely if you have a small number of machines and a large pool and I belive the server checks to see if the ip is in use but im not sure on that as I am out of practice with networking stuff.
