onboard lan not working using dhcp
i have a computer with win 98. it has the ecs k7s5a motherboard. 1.3 ghz
processor, 512 ram. i am using the onboard lan, which is the SIS 900 pci fast ethernet adapter. I have 3 computers hooked up into a network. I am using dhcp on my network to assign ip addresses. I use 192.168.1.xxx for my ip addresses, starting at 100-103. this morning when i boot up my computer. my internet did not work, while the two xp computers still work. the win 98 computer complete changed ip addresses on me. it is now 169.254.25.243, with no gateway or subnet mask assigned to my computer. after trying to release the numbers and assign new ones automatically to no avail. i chose to uninstall and reinstall the network card. did not fix the problem. i forced my computer to use an ip address, by assigning the number to my tcp/ip properties in control panel. the internet still does not. my router shows that there is a connection between my computer and my router, but for some reason my dhcp assigns an ip address to my 2 xp computers, but no longer to my 98 machine. please help me. |
