Ip but no ping

I'm a cable installer and have run into this now twice in the past
year. The ipconfig command brings back a normal ip (ie 24. or 69.
etc...) However it can not ping anything. Another computer when hooked
up to the same modem or router works fine.

i had the same problem on a couple of pc's one was caused by the reminants of
a bad uninstall of zone alarm and the other one had some needed services
disabled.
p.s. i know nothing, but hope this helps

The computer needs to have the TCP/IP stack rebuilt. For exact details
post in either a non-hardware newsgroup like this one or one for the OS
in question.
