Win95 to Win98 Networking

First of all I don't think Win95 supports NAT (not ICS for sure)
I don't think you have NAT installed as it doesn't work on routed networks and hardly used at all.

You have to assign Win95 client with IP address from DHCP server. If you don't have DHCP you must assign static IP but with the same network ID the rest of comps have, just like Uranium says.

You haven't mentioned but I think you're using workgroup model (each comp is equal peer and no servers installed). In this case you have to assign workgroup name on Win95 client (just check for similar info on other machine), then it would be able to see the rest of workstations. Again, check the IPs of other comps !

Finally ping the router with 127.0.0.1, if no response received assign default gateway with router's IP address.

This should fix your problem

OK. I think I tried all of that but I will make sure when i get home. I think that I am using NAT though. Maybe that's the problem.

I'm not exactly clear on what you need it to do. Do you need it to get internet access through your internet gateway (DSL router), share/access files, share/access printer...etc.?

I never use dynamic IP addresses on my LAN, simply for the reason that I don't want to have to deal with that complication, plus then if I'm having connectivity issues, I know specifically that I can ping 192.168.0.7 and know what device that is. I guess it's much more controlled that way, and I like having control over that with which I'm working.

If you're having problems even getting it to ping the internet gateway, or any device for that matter, we're looking at a low-level problem. If you're just having trouble getting it in your workgroup, or getting it to access the internet, we're getting into annoying problems.
