bsnl internet sharing

[3dsmaxed]

hi everyonei dont know whether this is the right place to post but i am facing problem regarding BSNL internet sharing thru switch which was working fine a few days back but when i disconnected my systems from the switch and reconnected them the internet wasno longer available on other pCS than server.Okay here's how it wenti have a bsnl connection and an 8 port swicth and 3 PCS.now what i did was connected the modem to the switch directly and used My PC to dial the internet connection. Worked like a charm. My PC and other PCs are directly connected to the switch. all had "use Ip address automatically". so whenever i used to connect to BSNl thru my PC other PCs cud share that internet connection and also local network was working fine. But one day i took out all the cable from the switch for office cleaning and when i put them back i started getting error of limited or no connectivity on all lan cards icon. so local network also stopped working so i applied ip addresses of range 192.168.0.1 - 192.168.0.3 to the PCS so that atleast local lan works and it does with these settings. Also i am able to connect to the BSNl connection from my machine But the other PCS no longer receive interneti dont understand what went wrong?can u guys helpThanks

this bridge mode will not work for this kind of connection.configure your modem for always on ie. pppoe and connect your switch to modem and all the pc's to switch.check your tcp/ip setting for "get ip address automatically" or static so you have to enable your modem dhcp or use satic IP's in pc's tcp/ip configuration.
