I have 3 computers on a home network using a linksys8-port workgroup switch.
 2 of the computers are XP pro and 1 XP home. The 2 XP pro are fine the XP
home will not connect tot the network I am getting lights on the switch, i
tried to repair the connection but i get an error that says cannot renew IP
address, so i went throught the directions to release and renew IP address
When I renew i get " an error occured while renewing interface local area
connection unable to contact your DHCP server request timed out" any ideas?
