New puter and I can't play with it

Oh, I hate this kind of problem.

So, I did a hard reset of the router. Set it with WEP security. Entered the code on the new Mac and all was fine there. Except now the Tivo (which runs through the network) and the old Mac didn't want to see the network.

After some fiddling around, reset the router again and everything saw the router. Cool. Put WEP protection back on. New Mac sees the network but the old Mac and Tivo once again won't.

Don't ask me what made me think of this, but I turned the wireless card off on the new Mac. Old Mac and Tivo can now see the network. Then, I turned the wireless card back on in the new Mac. Old mac and Tivo stay connected.

Hmm....
