limited or no connectivity
My freinds laptop connects to the internet on my cat5 wired network, it
works on his freinds cat5 wired connection. At his home he has a desktop pc wired to his cable modem using cat5 but when he connects his laptop to the cable modem (using the same lead) he gets a limited or no connectivity message. The laptop obviously is capable of connecting to the internet, and the lead obviously works, so why the connectivity problem? I tried ipconfig /release ipconfig /renew but still same problem. Any help here would be appreciated. |
limited or no connectivity
the modem may be locked to the desktop machine serial/mac numbers
check the settings in the modem's settings page if one is offered, or ask the isp a cheap router is a great way to share internet access, and they have the ability to clone the original pc mac number no matter how many are attached to the router only the allowed mac number is seen by the cable modem -- -- -- -- -- -- Adaware http://www.lavasoft.de spybot http://www.safer-networking.org AVG free antivirus http://free.grisoft.com/ Etrust/Vet/CA.online Antivirus scan http://www3.ca.com/securityadvisor/virusinfo/scan.aspx Super Antispyware http://www.superantispyware.com/ Panda online AntiVirus scan http://www.activescan.com Panda online AntiSpyware Scan http://www.pandasoftware.com/virus_info/spyware/test/ Catalog of removal tools (1) http://www.pandasoftware.com/download/utilities/ Catalog of removal tools (2) http://www3.ca.com/securityadvisor/n...aspx?CID=40387 Trouble Shooting guide to Windows http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/ Blocking Unwanted Parasites with a Hosts file http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm links provided as a courtesy, read all instructions on the pages before use Grateful thanks to the authors/webmasters _ "Mr X" wrote in message k...
