Obtaining an IP address at startup

[Guest]

I have a new dell with windows xp. When I boot it always defaults to the
default IP address. I must do an IPCONFIG /release and renew in order for it
to obtain the IP (not static) from my ISP.

This happens with our without my router. I think I have checked all the
settings for my network connection but do not see an issue.

I have other computers on the same network and do not have an issue.

Thanks

Be sure this computer IP address is set to get the Automatic IP address from
the router, to do that follow this:
Click Start >> Control panel >> Network and Internet Connections >> Right
click your connection and select properties.
On the connection Properties under General click and highlight the Internet
Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties and see if the setting set to get IP
and DNS auto from the gateway.
Then Open the Run command and type in: ipconfig /flushdns click [OK]
then type in: Ipconfig /release click [OK]
and type in: netsh winsock reset click [OK]
Reboot your machine and see if the machine will be assigned a new IP.
P.S have a look in the Hosts file and ses if there is a Static IP assigned
there.

Thank you for your assistance. I did all that you suggested and all settings
were correct. It still does not work.

At boot time the assigned IP address is 192.168.1.117

after ipconfig / release; ipconfig /renew the IP address is 12.44.15.209
which is consistent with by ISP IP addresses.

Thank you

Well Run the ipconfig /all on this machine and another machine, then
compare the output and see which identical to the other machine, my feeling
is somewhere along the line one of the machine is stealing the IP address and
assign it to itself, which causing this machine to not assign a new IP (but
I can't see this in Auto settings).
Meaning who comes first get it, but I can't see where the culprit can be it
could be any machine!.
Are you sure all machine all assigned Auto IPs, what the Range of the IPs is
it 12.44.15.1/245, if the Router 192.168.2.1 say for ex the rest of your
machine should be in this range 192.168.2.1 /100 or more it depends on your
IP schema.
I hope I understood you right?.
12.44.15.117 it doesn't looks right to me if you have the IP set to Auto
from the Router?
Try to ipconfig /all on this machine and another machine and compare the
output.
You could uninstall and reinstall the TCP/IP or the network card and see if
that will clear things for yout.

" DHCP Server . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.10.1" you are using a router.
so you should be getting something like 192.168.10.12 ect. also i dont see
your gateway and it should be your router IP. try to reset your router and
make sure that you are not getting the 12.xx address becuase you are behind a
router.

I can't see this in Auto settings).
Meaning who comes first get it, but I can't see where the culprit can be it

12.44.15.117 it doesn't looks right to me if you have the IP set to Auto

Try to ipconfig /all on this machine and another machine and compare the

You could uninstall and reinstall the TCP/IP or the network card and see if
that will clear things for yout.

Thank you for your assistance. I did all that you suggested and all settings

At boot time the assigned IP address is 192.168.1.117

after ipconfig / release; ipconfig /renew the IP address is 12.44.15.209
which is consistent with by ISP IP addresses.

Be sure this computer IP address is set to get the Automatic IP address from
the router, to do that follow this:
Click Start >> Control panel >> Network and Internet Connections >> Right
click your connection and select properties.
On the connection Properties under General click and highlight the Internet
Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties and see if the setting set to get IP
and DNS auto from the gateway.
Then Open the Run command and type in: ipconfig /flushdns click [OK]
then type in: Ipconfig /release click [OK]
and type in: netsh winsock reset click [OK]
Reboot your machine and see if the machine will be assigned a new IP.
P.S have a look in the Hosts file and ses if there is a Static IP assigned
there.

Thanks again for your help.

What exactly are these machines connected to? They appear to be using a
router (192.168.10.1) as the DHCP server, which should be giving addresses
like the ones you see at startup.

If the router is actually supplying addresess, you shouldn't be getting
addresses at the PC like 12.44.15.209 at all. Only the router's WAN
interface should have addresses in that range.

What is the router and how is its DHCP server set up?

What is the cabling configuration - do you have the line, then a modem, then
the router, and then the machines connected to the switch ports on the
router, or is it something else?

What the output of the command ipconfig /all on this machine and one of

nass -

Are you sure all machine all assigned Auto IPs, what the Range of the
IPs is
it 12.44.15.1/245, if the Router 192.168.2.1 say for ex the rest of
your
machine should be in this range 192.168.2.1 /100 or more it depends
on your
IP schema.

Yes I am sure. The ISP supplies the IP which in his case begins with
12.44.xxxxx etc. All 4 machines I have attached to the router have this
IP.

Well Run the ipconfig /all on this machine and another machine,
then
compare the output and see which identical to the other machine, my
feeling
is somewhere along the line one of the machine is stealing the IP
address and
assign it to itself, which causing this machine to not assign a new
IP (but
I can't see this in Auto settings).
Meaning who comes first get it, but I can't see where the culprit can
be it
could be any machine!.

12.44.15.117 it doesn't looks right to me if you have the IP set to

Try to ipconfig /all on this machine and another machine and compare

You could uninstall and reinstall the TCP/IP or the network card and

Thank you for your assistance. I did all that you suggested and all
settings
were correct. It still does not work.

At boot time the assigned IP address is 192.168.1.117

after ipconfig / release; ipconfig /renew the IP address is
12.44.15.209
which is consistent with by ISP IP addresses.

Thank you

This which puzzled me, are we speaking about an IP address assigned with the
router?, the machines should n't get the IP addresses range of 12.44.15.x it
should get the range of 192.168.10.x.

Sandy the IP address 12.44.15.209 is the P address given by the ISP to use,
by using the router the router get this IP address not the machines (unless
you have an IP address table), then the router play the DHCP server and
assign the machines the IP addresses in the range of 192.168.10.x.
Go through the router Configuration and set the Range say from 192.168.10.2
to 192.168.10.100 and the router will assign the machines IP addresses in
that range every time they start.

like the ones you see at startup.

If the router is actually supplying addresess, you shouldn't be getting
addresses at the PC like 12.44.15.209 at all. Only the router's WAN
interface should have addresses in that range.

What is the router and how is its DHCP server set up?

What is the cabling configuration - do you have the line, then a modem, then
the router, and then the machines connected to the switch ports on the
router, or is it something else?

What the output of the command ipconfig /all on this machine and one of
the
working one say?.

nass -

Are you sure all machine all assigned Auto IPs, what the Range of the
IPs is
it 12.44.15.1/245, if the Router 192.168.2.1 say for ex the rest of
your
machine should be in this range 192.168.2.1 /100 or more it depends
on your
IP schema.

Yes I am sure. The ISP supplies the IP which in his case begins with
12.44.xxxxx etc. All 4 machines I have attached to the router have this
IP.

Well Run the ipconfig /all on this machine and another machine,
then
compare the output and see which identical to the other machine, my
feeling
is somewhere along the line one of the machine is stealing the IP
address and
assign it to itself, which causing this machine to not assign a new
IP (but
I can't see this in Auto settings).
Meaning who comes first get it, but I can't see where the culprit can
be it
could be any machine!.

I hope I understood you right?.
12.44.15.117 it doesn't looks right to me if you have the IP set to
Auto
from the Router?
Try to ipconfig /all on this machine and another machine and compare
the
output.
You could uninstall and reinstall the TCP/IP or the network card and
see if
that will clear things for yout.

Thank you for your assistance. I did all that you suggested and all
settings
were correct. It still does not work.

At boot time the assigned IP address is 192.168.1.117

after ipconfig / release; ipconfig /renew the IP address is
12.44.15.209
which is consistent with by ISP IP addresses.

Thank you

I have a new dell with windows xp. When I boot it always
defaults to the
default IP address. I must do an IPCONFIG /release and renew in
order for it
to obtain the IP (not static) from my ISP.

This happens with our without my router. I think I have checked
all the
settings for my network connection but do not see an issue.

I have other computers on the same network and do not have an
issue.

Thanks

Be sure this computer IP address is set to get the Automatic IP
address from
the router, to do that follow this:
Click Start >> Control panel >> Network and Internet Connections
Right
click your connection and select properties.
On the connection Properties under General click and highlight
the Internet
Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties and see if the setting set
to get IP
and DNS auto from the gateway.
Then Open the Run command and type in: ipconfig /flushdns click
[OK]
then type in: Ipconfig /release click [OK]
and type in: netsh winsock reset click [OK]
Reboot your machine and see if the machine will be assigned a new
IP.
P.S have a look in the Hosts file and ses if there is a Static
IP assigned
there.

I will say try a new NIC and see if that will help, if not try to adjust the
Machines IP addresses to get it from the Router IP address Range of
192.168.10.XXXX.

I did as you suggested (reinstalled nic card) - worked the first time I
booted but same problem thereafter. I am now connected without the router -
same issue.

Thanks

Then try to uninstall the Network Adapter and reboot and see also you can
look for driver updates.
But it is true it is funy IP address you are getting in the range of
12.44.15.x you should get the IPs from the Router is your DHCP server.
