Default Win ME TCP/IP



Heres my problem!
I can not get Win ME to bind my Network card to the TCP/IP
When I go and do winipcfg it will not release or renew an
Ip address. Some how My TCPIP.sys I believe got
corrupted. I've tried reinstalling the TCP/IP but all
that it will list is the TCP/IP and My newtowork card is
not listed after that. How can rebuild the or replace the
files that I need to get this back on again!

If your network card appears in Winipcfg, then TCP/IP is bound to it.

If there's only one network adapter, the list of network components in
Control Panel | Network doesn't show the binding. It just shows this,
with the binding between them implied:

Network Card
TCP/IP

If there are two or more network adapter, then each binding is shown
explicitly:

Dial-Up Adapter
Network Card
TCP/IP -> Dial-Up Adapter
TCP/IP -> Network Card

What would cause winipcfg not to release and renew the Ip
I was on tech support from my Ip provider and he said it
is probley a software issue? What can I do besides
reinstalling ME? It seems I must be missing something real
simple. The Tech told me that the computer I was using was
not pulling an IP from there end. Thats when he said it is
a software issue.

Do you have a different network card you can try?

Here are some things that might fix the problem:

1. Check the cabling on your network card and whatever other hardware
(switch, router, cable modem) connects you to your ISP.

2. Download and install the latest network card driver program. You
can use another computer and transfer the driver on a floppy disk.

3. Un-install the network card in Device Manager, move it to a
different slot, and re-install it.

4. Make explicit speed and duplex settings. Automatic sensing doesn't
always work properly.

I have tried 3 network cards 2 are brand new, and tried 2
different routers all new cables and no go. The problem we
were having before this happen was Once in a while while
surfing it would just start giving DNS errors so I put in
a new network card and now can't do anyting. I put it in 2
Different PCI slots and tried 2 brand new Cards, and get
the same response!

How many IP addresses are you permitting the router to distribute?
