Check the computer that works and see if it is set with a static ip.  If XP, then  go to start>settings>network connections then right mouse click on 'local connection' then click once on 'tcp' then click the 'Properties' button. Let us know.....

How are your systems set up?  For example, are both computers plugged in or, is one wireless and one wired?  I can't tell from your inital post how your computers are physically set up for net access.........

I'm not ever sure which machine your talking about.  Lets do this, Computer A is the one that works and has net access, computer B is not connecting.  How is Machine A connected?  eg: is it connected to a port on the westell or a port (wired) on the wireless g?
