I'm having some trouble connecting to the DHCP server, and I'm hoping to get some help.
I'm running XP, connected to a broadband connection through a router along with another computer. The other computer connects to the net fine, however mine will not.
My computer won't allow me to renew my IP address, timing out every time i run "ipconfig/renew".
We've tried mimicking the IP details (with the last number changed), and this allows the two computers to communicate over a network, but without connecting to the DHCP, I cannot get net access.
When we called the ISP, they suggested it could have been a hardware problem, however, I am running a brand new Netgear card, and the other Realtec card that I had worked fine in my old house under the same conditions.
Please someone help!
