I suggest trouble-shooting this with a router, it'll make it much easier to sort it out.

ok ive had some success.

i took my comupter off obtain ip address auto, and assigned it 192.168.0.2 and conecting to the 8 port swtich with the dlink attached, and on its default ip of 192.168.0.32 i was able to fully connect to my dns 323 and both drives.

the seconnd i plug my cable modem/router in, it tears everthing down and assigns the dlink the 99.233.170.75 ip address

now i cant seem to connect to the web admin on my smc router 192.168.2.1 pulls up nothing

grrr!!

guess its over to the smc/rogers internet forums now heheh

I don't think your SMC is a modem/router, or you wouldn't be getting a public IP address.  Care to share the exact model with us?

and it turns out this was my problem!!!!

over at my ISP forums (where the modem/router was supplied to me by) it seems they are really poorly designed and it requires multiple hardware resets to get it back functioning properly. I had to factory reset it 11 times in a row till one finally took.

so it seems it was my routers problems DNS 323 is back into operation.

thank god

and smc you can burn in hell!!
