DHCP

I have XP Home Media and my Toshiba has wireless. I also had a home network.
So in the network Connections I have 3 icons.

My computer is hanging on startup (not always, and sometimes it frees itself
after a long wait.

I found in Event Viewer that when this happens I get error 30013, which I
paste below along with the results of doing a ipconfig /all.

Could somebody help? I think it has to do with DHCP being disabled, but I
don't know where to go and enable it and I wonder if I should just delete
the internet connections, other than the one I need now for cable access.

The DHCP allocator has disabled itself on IP address 213.217.229.58, since
the IP address is outside the 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0 scope from which
addresses are being allocated to DHCP clients. To enable the DHCP allocator
on this IP address, please change the scope to include the IP address, or
change the IP address to fall within the scope.

might be a bit of a pain but what about changing to fixed IPs (i mean if
there is only 2 machines and a router). then you take DHCP out of the loop.

What do you have *now* ? You said you had a home network - I'm not sure what
you're trying to accomplish at this point.

If you are trying to share your cable modem connection, and you have one
wired computer running WinXPMCE, and one laptop with a wireless card you
want to use, I suggest you get a cheap & cheerful hardware firewall
appliance with a built-in wireless access point - it can do DHCP and you can
access the Internet on both.

Make sure you use decent encryption / security on the wireless (WPA + PSK)
so you don't get uninvited guests on your network.

What is doing DHCP now? Your cable modem? What is connected to the cable
modem? I don't recommend ICS (Internet Connection Sharing), if that's what
you're trying to use, esp with wireless in the picture - although some
people have great success with it. You just have to configure it very
carefully.

Sounds like you installed IPv6 - you don't need it, and you really ought to
uninstall it.

From http://www.microsoft.com/technet/itsolutions/network/ipv6/ipv6faq.mspx
:

"Q. How do I uninstall the IPv6 protocol?

A. For the IPv6 protocol for Windows XP with SP2, Windows XP with SP1, or
Windows Server 2003, do the following:

1. Log on to the computer with a user account that has privileges to change
network configuration.
2. Click Start, click Control Panel, and then double-click Network
Connections.
3. Right-click any local area connection, and then click Properties.
4. Click Microsoft TCP/IP version 6 (for Windows XP with SP2 or Windows
Server 2003) or Microsoft IPv6 Developer Edition (for Windows XP with SP1),
and then click Uninstall.
5. When prompted to confirm the removal of the Microsoft IPv6 Developer
Edition or Microsoft TCP/IP version 6 protocol, click OK.

Alternately, from the Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 desktop, click
Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, and then click Command
Prompt. At the command prompt, type netsh interface ipv6 uninstall.

To remove the IPv6 protocol for Windows XP with no service packs installed,
do the following:
1. Log on to the computer with a user account that has local administrator
privileges.
2. From the Windows XP desktop, click Start, point to Programs, point to
Accessories, and then click Command Prompt.
3. At the command prompt, type ipv6 uninstall.

Sorry. I did not explain myself too well.

Right now all I have is a single computer attached to a cable modem.

Before I had a home ntwork with two computers (this one being one of them)
connected to cable through a router. And recently I used this computer in a
hotel's wireless internet setup.

I do not understand what is DHCP and whether the fact that I still have 3
icons in the network connections (cable, home network and wireless) these
are conflicting with each other, and whether I should delete/turn off the
ones that are not being used. I though the system looked after that
automatically.

Also I looked at 'services' in 'Administrative Tools' and it seems that I
can turn off the DHCP altogether but don't know if that is wise.

My hanging problem, appears to be to my ignorant mind, the system looking
for the network that no longer exists and maybe also for the wireless
connection which is also absent.

Any help understanding this problem, very welcome.

Sorry, again.

I had not realized that your meessage continued further down embedded in my
earlier message. Will loolk at that part now.

But a reply to my point in the last message would be appreciated.




"Lanwench [MVP - Exchange]"
 
Now that I have read the rest of your message, should I delete the IPv6 in
both the Local Area Cnnection and the Wireless Connection? (2 of the Icons
in Network Connections - sorry I have a Portuguese XP and have to give you
rough translations of what I seee)?

Anf if at a later stage I need them back, what do I have to do?

Do you see it in Add Remove Programs? If not, then yes, follow the steps to
do it per connection.

I am pretty sure you don't need IPv6 and won't for a long time, if then. :)

If you're connected through a router, and it's connected to your cable
modem, then the router is probably configured to give your computer(s) IP
addresses via DHCP.

And recently I used this computer in a
hotel's wireless internet setup.

I do not understand what is DHCP
Click to expand...

http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/D/DHCP.html may help. Means you don't have to
manually configure IP addresses on your clients.
Your cable modem probably receives an IP address from your ISP via DHCP.
Your cable modem probably also has a DHCP server in it, and if you have your
router connected to that, it receives its public-facing IP address via DHCP.
Your clients, plugged into that router, would receive private IP addresses
from *it*.

and whether the fact that I still have 3 icons in the network connections
(cable, home network and wireless) these are conflicting with each other,

No, but I'm not sure what exactly those are. What do you have in Network
Connections?
and whether I should delete/turn off the ones that are not being used. I

Click to expand...

It should, but it's not a bad idea to disable wireless if you aren't using
it.
Also I looked at 'services' in 'Administrative Tools' and it seems that I
can turn off the DHCP altogether but don't know if that is wise.
Click to expand...

That would be your DHCP client, and no, don't do that.
My hanging problem, appears to be to my ignorant mind, the system looking
for the network that no longer exists and maybe also for the wireless
connection which is also absent.
Click to expand...

Possibly, but take a look at everything I've suggested, and repost with your
results.
Any help understanding this problem, very welcome.
HTH.

Just answering this before doing anything else (meaning to delete the IPv6
from the Network Connections)

I n Network connections I have 3 icons (translating from Portuguese)

Wireless Connection (Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 395ABG Net)
Local Area Connection (Intel(R) PRO/1000 PL Network Connection)
1394 - Connection (1394 Net Adapter #2)

Recently I disabled the Wireless and the 1394 and the computer stopped
hanging even if the error 30013 in Event Viewer still happens every time I
start, though I would not know if I did not look

I hope this explains everything.

Thank you for your excellent and kind help.

OK - but do try add/remove programs first.

It's unlikely you need that one - it's firewire. I think you can safely
disable it.

If you aren't using wireless, it's fine to disable it, too.
