ah yes of course.you need to assign each PC on the network a different gateway address. So the router could be 192.0.1.1 and then each PC is xxx.xxx.xxx.02/03/04 and so on. I never gave that a thought.

The red herring wasThat was the very first thing I did when I encountered the problem, not really expecting it to work, and it didn't.
It turned out the first wireless card that was installed was faulty. I had to get another.
It did make sense but I checked our setup at work today and all the PCs that connect to the one router have an auto address assigned so why this setup needs to be different is beyond me.
It's great that the problem was found as sometimes things just "fix" themselves without explanation. I hate that.
