i am having the same problem here. it started after i tried to connect to my home
computer from work with winvnc.... not sure if that has anything to do with it tho...
i also tried some new wireless equipment out (router&reciever, linksys).... anyways
everytime ive turned on comp for last few days, its been on "automatic private address",
ive had to do a repair to fix it... well starting since yesterday i can no longer
repair it! now says unable to renew ip....... i have winxp pro which ive never updated,
dont know if that is part of the problem but is likely.... i know wireless config
in winxp had some bugs that were addressed in updates...
another thing that might be related is i disabled a bunch of non-crucial winxp services....
well i have reenabled them all now, still get no valid ip......
my ip comes up 192.68.xxx.xxx and says automatic private address now.... should
say dhcp instead and say 67.xxx.xxx.xxx as ip. no idea how to fix this if i figure
it out tho ill let u know.... gonna try reinstalling tcp/ip & see if that will work...
let me know if u figure it out...
ps-does the same thing on all my connections now even dial up and wireless. cant
get valid ip. think tcp/ip corrupted in windows that would be my first guess...
pps-i have called comcast and they cant figure this out either, have tried all modem
resets, uninstall/reinstalls, disable/enable, no luck
