I can't renew my IP Address either!

Hi,

I appear to be having a similar problem. I can get online only via an internet cable; the wireless worked fine for two years and now nothing. I have a signal that says excellent, but always get the page cannot be displayed message. My roommates have no problems whatsoever with the internet connection. Here is what hapened when I ran the command from above:

Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]

C:\Documents and Settings\Bethany Rickard>ip config /all
'ip' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

Anyone have any ideas??? Any help would be appreciated!

With the last post, your wireless IP and your DNS server are set to the same IP. Go to your network card properties and then open TCP/IP properties. The bottom part is the DNS server area. Is it set to pull a DNS server automatically? If not, set it to automatic. If it is, manually enter in 80.58.61.250. Apply and OK. Try the wireless internet connection again.

Select Start > Settings > Network Connections.

• Double-click the Connection icon of the connection you wish to modify to open the Local Area Connection Status window.
• Click the Properties button to open the Local Area Connection Properties window.
• Click to highlight Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
• Click the Properties button to open the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties window.
• TCP/IP Properties window, IP Address tab
• Select Obtain an IP address automatically.
• Select Obtain DNS server address automatically.
