Local Area Connection Not Workingacts as the DHCP server. Other PCs attached to this router (XP and Vista) are working fine. The problem system successfully obtains and IP address from the router but does not communicate on the network. If I disable the connection and enable it again it obtains an address but still does not communicate. I tried resetting the TCP/IP stack (netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt) as described in KB299357. If I do that when I try releasing and renewing the IP address using ipconfig I get an error message that a file was not found. If I then idable and enable the connection network operates. But, once the PC is rebooted I'm back to no network until I go through the reset, disbale, enable cycle. Any suggestions? -- Richard F Hi
Do you have a valid Internet connection with this PC? If the IP that the computer obtains starts with a 169.xxx.xxx.xxx, then it is Not a functional IP. Jack (MS, MVP-Networking).

same: IP Address: 192.168.0.2 SNM: 255.255.255.0 DG: 192.168.0.1 DNS: 192.168.0.1 DHCP: 192.168.0.1 which (other than the IP address) are the same on the other working systems. Trying to use IE for internal or external sites or ping the router does not work while it does from the other systems. Once the "workaround" is done everything works even though the ipconfig settings remain the same. -- Show quoteHide quoteRichard Fullford Mobile: +61 4 1244 7236 Fax: +61 2 6286 7142 "Jack-MVP" <j***@discussgroups.com> wrote in message news:uM4No2W6JHA.936@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... > Hi > Do you have a valid Internet connection with this PC? > If the IP that the computer obtains starts with a 169.xxx.xxx.xxx, then it > is Not a functional IP. > Jack (MS, MVP-Networking). > > "Richard F" <richardf@newsgroup.nospam> wrote in message > news:e42aTwW6JHA.1092@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... >>I have a Windows XP SP3 system connected to a local ADSL Modem/Router >>which acts as the DHCP server.

Thank you for posting. Firstly, may I know if the issue is that you cannot visit webpages with Internet Explorer? If you run other network-based applications, such as MSN, will it work? At this time, let's try following to check the issue: 1. Boot the computer to "Safe Mode with Networking" and check how it works. 2. Try to upgrade the driver for the NIC. (If you want, please also let me know the exact brand and model of your NIC, I will help you find the driver.) 3. Perform a Clean Boot environment to check the issue How to configure Windows XP to start in a "clean boot" state http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310353 How to perform advanced clean-boot troubleshooting in Windows XP http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316434 4. If it is possible, please bypass the router and estabish the connection directly to see how it works. If the issue persists, please also help me gather the following information for our further research: 1. Collect the MPS Report 1) Download the MPS Report Tool from the following link: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=CEBF3C7C-7CA5-408F- 88B7-F9C79B7306C0&displaylang=en 2) After the download is complete, run the executable file. When you are prompted "Include the MSINFO32 report?", please input Y to continue. After a while, a CAB file will be generated. 3) Open My Computer, browse to the "%systemroot%\MPSReports\Setup\Reports\Cab" folder. You can find the CAB file above. 2. Capture the network packet 1) Download NetMon3.3 from the following website and install it on the computer http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=983b 941d-06cb-4658-b7f6-3088333d062f 2) Logon with you Administrator account and launch NetMon3.3. 3) In the Microsoft Network Monitor 3.3 window, click Create a new capture tab... 4) In the new tab, select all the Network Adapters in the Select Networks window. 5) After that, press F10 to start NetMon. 6) Try to re-produce the problem. 7) Go back to the NetMon window and press F11 to stop the NetMon. Please use Windows Live SkyDrive (http://www.skydrive.live.com/) to upload the files and share their URLs with us. Hope this helps. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to let me know. Best regards, Nicholas Li Microsoft Online Support Thanks for that advice. I'll work through the suggestions and let you know
how it goes. -- Show quoteHide quoteRichard F ""Nicholas Li [MSFT]"" <v-nic***@online.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:CMDef0c6JHA.3908@TK2MSFTNGHUB02.phx.gbl... > Hi Richard, > > Thank you for posting. > > Firstly, may I know if the issue is that you cannot visit webpages with > Internet Explorer?

pings, file access), not just Internet Explorer. I have found that the problem seems to be intermittent. It seems that occasionally after a reboot the networking fails which suggests that the issue is a hardware problem. I have changed the router DHCP and updated the driver and haven't had a problem since.

Thank you for writing back and letting us know the current situation. I am glad to know that the issue has been resolved after changing the router DHCP and updating the NIC driver. Your efforts are highly appreciated. At this time, I would like to share the case summary as well: ================= ACTION: ------------- Connect to network RESULT: -------------- Failed to connect to network CAUSE: ------------ Improper router settings or NIC driver was out-of-date. RESOLUTION: ---------------------- Change the router's DHCP settings and update the NIC driver. ================= If you have any other questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us. It is always our pleasure to be of assistance. Have a great day! Nicholas Li Microsoft Online Support I serviced a computer recently with very similar symptoms. The problem
turned out to be a failing NIC. You might try a substitute even if just to eliminate the possibility. -- Show quoteHide quote"Richard F" <richardf@newsgroup.nospam> wrote in message news:e42aTwW6JHA.1092@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... >I have a Windows XP SP3 system connected to a local ADSL Modem/Router which >acts as the DHCP server.
