Hi All,
I have some users on laptops that go between the LAN (Novell & NT combo)
and a cable modem (at home internet access). Things were working okay
until just recently. Now one of them cannot get an IP renewal when they
switch between the different networks. I currently have a couple of simple
batch files created that the user double-clicks to force a release and
renew of the IP address.
It appears to be the laptop by my estimate, seeing as the other DHCP
machines have no problem....knock on wood. I plan on uninstalling and
reinstalling the TCP/IP stack to see if that might help. I've also
installed service pack 6a for NT.
Possibly handy info: Dell Inspiron 7500 laptop (P450), NT4 with svc pk 6a,
3COM Fast Ethernet 10/100 BASE-TX PCMCIA card, IPX/SPX & TCP/IP protocols.
Any ideas what might be causing the IP renewal problem?
Thanks in advance!
Lance Kephart
