-=PCTechTalk=- Cable Connection Problem

Glo, It sounds like you lost your IP address for some reason.  My friend has 
already released and renewed his IP address via WINIPCONFIG.  It's possible 
that the lease date is up on his IP address and the lease was not renewed for 
some reason (seems I had this problem once a long time ago), but I would think 
that the phone tech would have went over that with him, and also the cable guy 
that came to his house and installed a new Ethernet card.  Will check that also 
when I go over there tomorrow.
Thanks!  : )

Well I'm not sure, but this sounds like the problem I had with my cable
connection for 2 months!  We tried everything until some genious at
Cablevision finally found two minutes he could spare and told m to type in
WINIPCONFIG and read the IP address to him.  I did and he said wait a
minute, then he did something techy that changed the IP address and voila! I
could finally get back on the internet after all that time.  So maybe this
could be an IP address problem (?), maybe your friend could ask them to
change something in there. When I called Tech Support they had to xfer me to
the Tech Dept. in order to find someone who knew how to solve this problem.
