jpatto Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 Why does Vista lose internet connectivity every 20-30 mins. I have to use the following command to reset it but this only lasts for about 20 mins before i have to repeat it again:ipconfig /flushdns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunsmokingman Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 I have not lost my internet connection, using this beta.try this cmd after ipconfig /registerdns/registerdns Refreshes all DHCP leases and re-registers DNS namesAre you using a 3rd partty firewall, and if you are using a 3rd party firewalldoes it allow for the Ipv6 protocall, because Vista uses that instead of Ipv4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't register your machine to a public DNS server. Also, Vista uses IPv6 and v4. You can't use v6 exclusively at this time.I suppose the only workaround is to:ipconfig /releaseipconfig /renew...everytime you drop the connection.

sidefx Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 I have 2 pcs sharing an internet connection via a Linksys router.My pc dual boots xpro and vista.The 2nd pc runs xpro.Whenever I am in Vista I lose connection on the 2nd pc and need to boot into xp 2x and unplug the power to reset the connection on both my dsl modem and router before I get internet connectivity back.How do I fix this, any suggestions?
