    You didn't say if you can ping the router from Win7 or Lubuntu (or both).

    Also do as Weirdy suggested or (right-click on the network icon in the desktop panel) to see Connection Information. This should show if the Lubuntu machine has been assigned a suitable IP address (i.e. an ip in the same range as the network).

    As for the Boxes of Windows, yes, I did an ipconfig all, and there appears to be a 6-to-4 and isatap tunnel adapters listed. All I know is that these are tunnel adapters, but I have no idea how they function.

    I tried this (after having received your suggestion), it went through all the intervals, but it didn't work. The problem probably isn't DHCP related, but thanks for your help.
