Ar1Pe Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 I had the exactly the same problem when I installed XP Pro on my computer. My DSL modem didn't renew the IP address after the time that my ISP asked for it (=30 minutes here). I had to restart my comp every time. Everything seemed to be ok, but even the the release/renew -commands didn't help. Finally found out that it was my modem drivers ( which were the right ones, and worked with most of the computers) that didn't work right, and got the beta-drivers for my modem from the manufacturer and ever since has been working ok. So have been using beta-drivers for 2 years now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcoTips Posted December 1, 2004 Author Share Posted December 1, 2004 that isn't going to solve my problem I think because I'm using a router, and everything worked fine until SP2, could it perhaps be the file that limits the TCP or something like that connections to 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shabador Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 First of all. Try to disable any firewall software you might have on your computer. Including the firewall that comes default with Windows.Second: Are you using wireless lan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koald58 Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 I've seen this on computers that went back to a hub, and when moving them to a switch, the problem stopped happening. Very annoying though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihatespam Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 I have a situation that is known to many users, I have 4 2003 servers that were using SP1, once SP2 was installed they lost Internet access, they can even ping the sites by name and the ping comes back ok, but the only way I have found to regain access is to un-install the SP2, now for company policies I need to have SP2 installed, any ideas? Seems like this has been happening on many computers, different operating systems with SP2 added, and to many customers all over but I can't find a fix, any help will be greatly appreciated.ihatespamspyware@hotmail.comThank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
