FPCH Admin AWS Posted June 10, 2005 FPCH Admin Posted June 10, 2005 How is tcp/ip configured for the network? DHCP? Static IP? What does ipconfig /all say? Quote Off Topic Forum - Unlike the Rest
Dillonb Posted June 10, 2005 Author Posted June 10, 2005 It is set to obtain ip automatically andI don't have a static ip Quote
phreakwars Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 I think he means goto a command prompt and type : ipconfig /all Then post your results. I'm sure its probably something simple and silly thats overlooked, just gotta figure out what it is. Perhaps the machine is setup for a different connection type, maybe TCP/IP is configured wrong, Is it configured to share files/connection correctly? So many ways to go here. . . Quote
Dillonb Posted June 10, 2005 Author Posted June 10, 2005 when i go to run and I type "ipconfig" I get a black screen that comes and goes Quote
phreakwars Posted June 10, 2005 Posted June 10, 2005 goto RUN and type CMD first, this will open a command prompt window... then type IPCONFIG /ALL Inside the command prompt window . . Quote
Dillonb Posted June 11, 2005 Author Posted June 11, 2005 this is what it says: Look at screenshot attached: http://techisles.com/ip.GIF Quote
phreakwars Posted June 12, 2005 Posted June 12, 2005 Theres no default gateway listed, this should be the same as your DHCP server number. DNS Suffix Search List is also not listed Also I'm curious about your host name... usually this would be the name of the computer your on. The photo shows it as saying FRONT... is this implying FRONTIER INTERNET ?? Or is that just what you named it when installing XP ? The reason I'm asking is I wonder if you maybe just typed in the wrong info in the wrong boxes when you configured it.. sure seems like it.. Wish I was in front of the screen, I'd probably have it in less then a minute.. It appears to be a DHCP error in your configuration. Can you at LEAST log into the modem or can you ping the other PC ?? Also did you enable home networking in the network setup wizard?? I guess what I'm really asking, is are the 2 computers able to communicate with each other... if so then we can focus this a little better. . '. . Quote
