Failed to query TCP/IP settings of the connection.

I'm working on a friend's laptop, trying to get it to access the wireless
router, no luck.. I connect it to the router with a cable, still no luck.

It recognises it's connected but gives me a 0.0.0.0 IP, and if I try to
repair the connection it tells me: "Failed to query TCP/IP settings of the
connection."

When searching for Wireless networks, it actually finds the network we have
but just won't connect.

Following advice I found via Google I edited the nettcpip.inf file to allow
TCP/IP protocol to be uninstalled under network settings.. After a restart I
then re-installed it.. Still nothing.

Any ideas?

I'd try to install the latest drivers for the wireless NIC - and if that
doesn't work, try another wireless NIC.

You might also try Winsockfix from here or another respected source -
http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4372.html - but since your wired Ethernet
connection is working fine, I'm not sure this is the answer to your
problems.
 
hi

Is there any other pc connected wireless via the same router .. if yes check
the ip address on that pc . Make sure that router's DHCP is enabled . If all
that dosent work connect the pc to the modem directly to check if there any
connectivity . If it works contact the router mfd for technical assistance

regards
Rishi
