Hello. I have an old laptop with Windows 98. Until recently I have been able to
connect to wireless without any problems. I have an AT & T network card. Since getting
the laptop (used) in order to connect to the internet I would have to run winipcfg,
release and then renew. I was advised when I first bought the computer a few years
ago, that I'd have to connect using winipcfg command. Ok...so like I say, been connecting
fine. I hadn't used it in some time and a couple of weeks ago I was going to use
it. I ran winipcfg and now it will not release or renew. When I click release,
the ip address number do not clear as they had before. When I click renew, I get
the hour glass and eventually get an error that stated something about the adaptor.
Sorry thought I had that written down !
Anyway, I searched the forum and found several things but much of it was a bit above
my head. Can anyone offer suggestions, that's easy to follow :-)
Thanks,
RobinC
