Intranet and Internet

Hi, I need help as this is driving me crazy.
My Macbook is in a subnet (IP: 192.168.5.250 DHCP), Router and DNS are set up correctly.
If I go into the Internet there is no problem, however if I try to call our webserver (IP:192.168.0.4) the computer cannot access.
I have found that if I change to our wireless network (192.168.0.139 AP), deactivate the wireless and change back to our cable network then everything works.
I currently have to do this every morning when I go to work.
Can anybody help?
Thanks in advance

MacBook 2.0Ghz White Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Where are these two Networks?

Ethernet at Home Router Modem? Wireless where? Webserver where?

A simple solution might be to set Network>TCP/IP>IPv4 to Manual then set...

IP: 192.168.5.250
Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0
Router: 192.168.5.1 or whatever it is.

Are you aware that the order of the Interfaces in Network>Show:>Network Port Configurations can be dragged around, and that the top one will have 1st shot at Internet, lower ones for local networking?

Thank you for your reply
All networks are at my company
On my macbook I have 2 locations set:
Firm - LAN over normal RJ45 cable
Firm WLAN - Wireless over Cisco Access Point

IP Address is set manually, no DHCP
In both locations there is only 1 port:
Firm - Ethernet
Firm WLAN - Airport

Once again thanks for your help

Is the MacBook just being put to sleep when traveling, or is it being shut down?
