If you get an APIPA address, you have a connectivity issue. You're not
getting a valid IP address from the DHCP. This could be a physical problem
(patch cable, port, NIC), NIC driver...
Remove the IP address assigned to the laptop from DHCP.
>From a command prompt:
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
(even if you have an APIPA, release will give you 0.0.0.0)
Did you ever say which OS was running on the laptop or did I miss that?
Are you running anything on the laptop that did not come with the OS, IDS,
personal firewall, if XP ICF, an entry in your HOSTS file for 192.168.1.1...
If you still do not get an IP from DHCP, have you tried putting in a static
IP address and trying to ping the server by name?
Which brand laptop is this?
Which SP level are you at for the OS?
Are there OEM drivers that need to be reapplied after SPs are run, like with
HP/Compaq [although I find this more so on servers]?
