I am running a two computer network with a DSL line ported into the host
computer through a USB port and the two machines connected by an
ethernet crossover cable. The network has quit functioning and when I
click on "repair" for this connection in the network window, I get a
message that says Windows cannot repair because it can't renew the IP
address - for assistance ask the network manager. Well, I AM the
manager, and I don't know how to set the IP address.
For this connection, I clicked on properties/configure(the ethernet
adapter)/advanced/network address. There it shows "not present" has
been selected. Should I select a value, and if so what value? The
ethernet adapter is a GVC Realtek PCI.
