Ok...give me a few minutes...heres the ipconfig /all with TCP/IP set to
autoconfig ( as my other boxes are and this one used to be before trouble):

Much better. When typing commands given to you by
a respondent, make sure to type them literally. Taking
liberties won't work . . .

Putting the problem machine on a fixed IP address was
a good idea. However, you must also set its DNS server
address to 192.168.0.1. Right now it's blank.

After you've done this, run the following tests from a Command
Prompt on the problem PC and report the results in each case:

ping 192.168.0.1
ping 192.168.0.2
ping 66.249.89.99
ping www.google.com

You should also turn off your PC-based firewall during these
tests (if you have one).

Please note that since our last exchange...I went ahead and set the
TCP/IP
settings in the bad computer to manual...and inputted the info...if they
are
set to automatic as they used to be...and all other PC's on the network
are...I get 0.0.0.0 for the IP information ?

I now get packets back and forth...but still can't connect to the
internet

My home network had been working fine...then a couple days
ago...one
computer on the wireless stopped accessing the internet...the
computer
icon
in system tray said good connection...but there were ) & )
packets
sent
and/or received

After playing with it a day or so...I removed the wireless
adapter...installed a new LAN card...added the drivers
and connected the problem computer directly to the router. I am
still
getting 0 & 0 packets sent/received !

In the problem PC...I have noticed that in Administration
Tools/Services..the DHCP Client status is "Starting" ? All
other
services
are either not started or started...the DHCP service is the only
one
with
a
status of starting ? (after twenty or so minutes)

Is this why I can not get any signal or sent/received packets
from
the
network connection. All other desktops and/or laptops on the
router
are
functioning well . If I disconnect the problem PC from the
router...I
immediately get a cable disconnect error in the system tray
icon...when
reconnected...I get a connection and all ok...except no
sent/receives

Thanks, Tim R



A good starting point would be to report some hard facts, e.g.
- Did both PCs fail or just one?
- Do you know if your network cable is functioning?
- What are the IP addresses you use? Type ipconfig.exe /all
at the command prompt to find out. You need to report it
for both PCs!
- Did you reset the router?


The problem started only on the one PC
The cable is new and works fine on two tested laptops
The IP address of the working cabled PC is 192.168.0.2
The IP address on the troubled PC reported 0.0.0.0 yesterday...but
today
both cabled PC's open and then close the dos window faster than I
can
read
it ?
Both the router and the cable modem have been reset many times...all
PC's
have Internet access except the one
All cable outlets on the router are working...have tried all four
jacks
with
the working PC's and no problems
My ISP (Cox) will not help much because they no longer support W2000

Unfortunately you omitted most of the information that is
required to diagnoste your problem. Here is what's really
required to do a proper analysis:
- Click Start / Run / cmd {OK}
- Type these commands:
ipconfig /all > c:\test.txt
notepad c:\test.txt
- Run these commands on both PCs, then paste the contents
of c:\test.txt into your reply.
