Re: Limited or No Connectivity



I noticed that routing was disabled on your desktop, could that be the cause?
I know DHCP server does not actually have to be part of the router but in
most case they are together, therefore it could be possible that there is
some dependencies betwwen the windows xp DHCP service and the routing
service, check it out!

Just to set things straight... the desktop, not the notebook, is the source
of my internet connection. I have no problems connecting to the internet
using the desktop. The problem is getting the notebook to connect to the
internet via the network.

The rest of the network is working fine. Can work back and forth between
the two machines.

Not sure what a router of a hub would do to solve the problem? Maybe you
can explain further.

You might also take a look at my last post to Hans-Georg. You see that
uninstalled IP v6 and the ipconfig log is pretty clean.

Thanks... Cookie.

might be a little off here but if the laptop is the source of the
internet connection it needs to be IP# 192.168.0.1 the tower can be
whatever. Set the IP on the tower to a static number like
192.168.0.10. submask should come up 255.255.255.0 and put the gateway
as 192.168.0.1. I have this type of problem here a lot. once you take
that stupid DHCP server out of the loop everything usually works fine.

I agree with taking the v6 out. never needed it.

Might also consider getting a router. I bought a nice little 4 port
one from best buy for $50. has served me well.

Help PLEASE!
I have a desktop running XP Pro SP2 and a Toshiba notebook running XP Home
SP1. They are direct connected with a cross over cable. I can read and move
files back and forth between them with no problem. The problem is that the
desktop tells me that I have "Limited or No Connectivity". The desktop is
connected to the internet via a cable modem with a USB cable. No problem get
on line with the desktop, but the notebook will not let me on line.

From the notebook I can not 'ping' any public website. I have looked at
several web sites operated by MVP's and haven't yet found an answer.

The following is the text from ipconfig on the notebook:

Anybody out there got any suggestions in solving this problem before I turn
into an alcholic? Help is much appreciated.
