Thanks for all the replies everyone. When I used the 'netsh int ip reset'
command, everything started working.
This list continues to amaze me. Thanks everyone!

Speaking of plugged in things....try for the heck of it also try swapping the
power strip the CPU is plugged in to. Believe it or not we had one instance
where the power fluctuations in the strip caused erratic network connectivity.
Stranger things have happened.

Sub Net Mask.
Given these two IP ad dresses, the fourth octet would have to be 0.
So 255.255.255.0? Something similar?

Sound like a Subnet problem...
What is the SNM and Gateway?

Hi Glenn,
1. Tried both DHCP and static, same problems.
2. Network settings are correct.
3. Can ping 127.0.0.1
4. Can ping IP address (172.16.1.70)
Thats it. Cannot ping the gateway, or anything else, either by name or
IP.
Like I mentioned, if I set him up on the ISP's network, everything
works.
Thanks,
Shawn

Go systematically:
1. DHCP Server or Static? If DHCP, and the rest of the clients work,
you can assume that the settings on the DHCP server are right.
2. Check IP Address/Subnet mask/Default Gateway.
3. Ping 127.0.0.1 (Checks the Loopback interface) 4. Ping IP Address
(Checks TCP/IP stack) 5. Ping Default Gateway (Checks subnetting &
Default Gateway) 6. Ping other local computer by IP Address (Checks
subnetting) 7. Ping other local computer by name. (Checks WINS if
applicable) 8. ping remote computer by IP address. (Checks Routing) 9.
Ping remote computer by name. (Checks DNS resolution)
Report back...

Subject: [windows2000] Strange thi ngs are happening here
Hi group,
I'm having a problem on a computer here (the Boss's of course). He's got
an IBM thinkpad running XP Pro. We are a small company, running on a
private LAN (172.16.1.x).
Yesterday, the laptop started having trouble communicating with the rest
of the LAN. Couldn't get email, files, etc. Rebooted, no joy. Checked
his settings, all are normal.
Checked all the cabling as well, its all good. I hooked him up to our
ISP's network connection, and it works fine. The only way I can
currently get him acess to the office network is to have him VPN from
the outside network in. Obviously, less than ideal! ;)
Whats really strange is that when I hook him up to the internal LAN, he
can't even ping anything by IP, it all times out. Doing a route "print
looks" fine. Either I'm missing something completely obvious (possible,
2 year old keeps me awake alot), or something on his laptop is really
fried.
C an anyone suggest anything?
Thanks,
