Re: Wireless internet is stuck on identifying...

[oliver88]

i have exactly the same problem, i've tried the above and that didn't fix it, i've also tried resetting the wireless network adapter and the ip address - i've been able to connect through my laptop for ages and now suddenly it doesnt work, any other suggestions?

edit: sorry forgot to mention that every now and again it pops up a "this computer has encountered an ip address conflict"

Even though it appears you're having the same problem, please start a new thread when you have a new issue. It's very difficult to keep two problems straight and who's working on what in a single thread.

I've created a new thread for your issue here.

Note: You will need to post complete details of your configuration and your specific issue in this new thread for us to help you.

Thanks for your cooperation.

Repair duplicate IP address on network issue.

1. Turn off everything on the network, ALL the machines and any other network device like network printers and NAS drives.
2. Turn off the router and modem.
3. Turn on the modem, wait for a steady data light.
4. Turn on the router, wait two minutes.
5. Turn on the network devices and computers, one at a time.

This issue is usually caused by resetting a router without resetting all the network connected devices.

Another issue that will cause duplicate IP addresses is assigning static IP addresses to devices that conflict with the router's DHCP address range. If you require static IP addressed devices on the network, they should be configured to be in the same subnet but outside the address range defined for the DHCP server.
