Default Having issues with Winipcfg

The modem works, but the ethernet card does not.

I think I have a hardware failure as the card also failed in my Jornada 720
palmtop.

I have a wifi card, but no access to wifi locally.

The Jornada 720 also has a built in modem.

Hopefully TrendNet will send me another refurbished TE-CF100 card, as mine
is under warranty.

Interesting. Why reinstall DUN if it isn't being used? Is the installation
part of the fix, or are we assuming the OP wishes to retain DUN for when
high speed connection isn't available?

I am using a Compaq Armada 1700 laptop which runs Windows 98 Second

The last time I used this computer to connect to the Internet was some

months ago. Just last night I attempted to get on the Internet with it,

but
I was unable too. My network PCMCIA card works, but cant connect. I
tried
renewing and releasing all with winipcfg but the program fails to
respond
after this.

I did a search on the web and some website said to add/remove dial up
networking, and re-install. I did this, but it did not fix my problem.

So I then called my ISP's tech support, and he reccommended that I
remove

my
Network Card drivers, and re-install from the floppy, and I did this,
but

my
problem remains.

So therefore I think I have a SERIOUS problem.

Does anyone have any solutions?


Thanks,

This procedure can fix strange problems with Windows 98 TCP/IP. Is
this what you tried?

1. Un-install Internet Connection Sharing (if installed).
2. Un-install Dial-Up Networking. Don't reboot.
3. Delete registry key HLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Winsock2
4. Re-install Dial-Up Networking. Reboot.
5. Re-install Internet Connection Sharing (if desired).
