What's this about?

[Guest]

I get this error in the event log every time I boot windows xp:

"The IP address lease 192.168.2.10 for the Network Card with network address
00402B40A6FC has been denied by the DHCP server 192.168.2.1 (The DHCP Server
sent a DHCPNACK message)."

What is this, and what can I do to avoid these entries?

Reboot your DHCP router.

You realize you just posted you MAC address?

I always reboot my modem and PC, so it has nothing to do with it.

Wow, how useless these replies are.
I posted the entire entry as it is from the event log. But I don't
understand the error.

 

[Bob]

Open a command window and type "ipconfig /release" then "ipconfig /renew" do
you still get the error?
What is your network like IE does you computer attach to a cable modem or
router then cable modem?

 

[Bob]

And what possible use is that going to be to anyone?

Your modem and PC is not the same thing as a router.

Dan, find the properties for the network connection, then double click on
the properties for the TCP/IP protocol to open it's property page.

See if you have a fixed IP address and try using the automatic settings
instead.

Make a note of what's there by the way. Your DNS server settings should work
on the auto settings too but also note that. Apply and OK your way back out
and see if that helps.

I assume you just have modem and PC and if this idea does not help then
posting back with the make / model modem and anything else connected to the
network might help someone to help you with it.
