Show us the actual IPS tbh, 192.168.x.x is a local IP is not accessible outside your lan. maybe for some reason her IP changed and so it registered the new client, but didn't unclear the original. Is this showing in your DHCP or active clients? If it was in the DHCP , did you change networking adapters at all?

An easy way to check is just compare the mac address in the list
Start->Cmd -> ipconfig /all
But yeah, is this in the DHCP settings/list or in the status window/list

Well turn off the connection from your mams computer and see what one disappears. If they both do then its probably a firmware glitch.
|
Nope, One says
192.168.2.2 TRACY-PC
other says
192.168.2.3 Tracy-Pc
hint not all caps?

Is this a wireless router by any chance? First thing I would do is shut down her computer and recheck the list.
|
yes wireless but only 2 pcs on and connect threw a wire, one is mine and my moms...i few days ago i took out my moms wireless card

you said you took out the wireless card? Has the wireless card ever accessed the router ( even by accident )
Have you tried rebooting the router? The router will map the IP to the mac address for the lease time in your dhcp settings. If it was dynamically mapped then it'll clear upon reboot/lease timeout, otherwise if it was statically set it will still be there. Aside from this i cant think of anything else

* Make sure the PC isn't running anykind of server software (Windows NT, 2003, 2008) This causes the router to give more IP's to the machine (my server has 10  )
|
Not automatically, you need to manually assign them...
|
Heh yeah we were doing DHCP in winserv 2003 this year, its not something that magically turns on and configures 
|
My server 2003R2 had uses 10 IP's as Default after installation for IIS etc. Afterwards you can lower them but i didn't so i still have 10
SSnipe: sorry but that was all i could give you atm
