Set all the IPv4 properties back to automatic and reboot. After you start-up
(most likely wont have internet) try ipconfig -release and then ipconfig -
renew and see if it changes to the 192.168.0.68 IP address that you said
works. these commands don't change the IPv4 settings to a specific setting,
everything stays on automatic, it just fetches an IP that the DHCP gives and
starts using it. if running these two commands gives you the IP and
everything you need, we can make a simple batch file to run at startup that
will make it all work. This way it would work at your workplace too since
you said it worked fine on automatic there. Let me know how it goes,

first, unbind IPv6
http://digitalmediaphile.wordpress.c...windows-vista/

second, get the latest driver from the Intel website for the
wireless

third, post the brand model, hardware revision of the router you are
using and the firmware version and what type of security you are
using. you should try WPA-AES with this particular wireless card or
WPA2.

I'm having a similar problem and this appear to fix my problem

Step 1, Click Start
step 2, Go to Accessories
step 3, Right click on Command Prompt and run as administrator
step 4, When the command prompt opens type the following.PRESS ENTER
after each new line.
ipconfig /flushdns *Press enter *
ipconfig /release *Press enter *
ipconfig /renew *Press enter *
exit *press enter *

Hope this helps, but Vista is such a piece of CRAP you just never
know.

You can put this into a batch file, and have it ready for use!

-IPv6 has been unbound
-current intel driver matches latest version posted on Intel website (ver
11.5.0.32)
-router info - SC8014WG WAN/LAN
RG and NAT functions - Enabled
Software Version 4.02.06-GNR
Hardware Version 1B
Encryption - WPA-PSK (only other options given are WPA2-PSK and WEP)
Re: updates - the website says there are none available for this model under
firmware or drivers. Also, The directions given by SMC for upgrading the
router itemizes menu options that I don't have listed. I have emailed their
tech support regarding this but haven't heard back yet.

found the problem with my last attempt on those 3 commands. The laptop
wasn't connected. Ran with no errors once the connection was turned on.

do you mean SMC8014WG ?
I can't find a product page for SC8014...

which of the ones on
http://www.smc.com/index.cfm?event=v...e=EN_USA&cid=2
do you have or is this provided by your ISP (who is your ISP?)

some of the business SMC8014's have 1 to 1 NAT (symmetrical) as
opposed to cone NAT. and on some you can turn 1 to 1 on and off and
use Cone NAT.

sorry, SMC8014W-G and internet provided by Rogers

http://www.smc.com/index.cfm?event=v...id=19&pid=1505

I don't know much of anything regarding NAT, however, I couldn't find
anything in the router's webpage to turn off or alter NAT settings. Only NAT
option was for port forwarding.

Rogers (my ISP) says there is nothing they can do because I am getting
internet service without issues on my desktop, therefore the router is
functioning properly. SMC (router manufacturer) sends me back directions to
unplug, wait 10 seconds and plug back in or speak to my ISP.

guitardude n/a posts	Re: Automatically get new IP settings for the network adapter Set all the IPv4 properties back to automatic and reboot. After you start-up (most likely wont have internet) try ipconfig -release and then ipconfig - renew and see if it changes to the 192.168.0.68 IP address that you said works. these commands don't change the IPv4 settings to a specific setting, everything stays on automatic, it just fetches an IP that the DHCP gives and starts using it. if running these two commands gives you the IP and everything you need, we can make a simple batch file to run at startup that will make it all work. This way it would work at your workplace too since you said it worked fine on automatic there.

Barb Bowman n/a posts	Re: Automatically get new IP settings for the network adapter do you mean SMC8014WG ? I can't find a product page for SC8014... which of the ones on http://www.smc.com/index.cfm?event=v...e=EN_USA&cid=2 do you have or is this provided by your ISP (who is your ISP?) some of the business SMC8014's have 1 to 1 NAT (symmetrical) as opposed to cone NAT. and on some you can turn 1 to 1 on and off and use Cone NAT.

WilliamW n/a posts	Re: Automatically get new IP settings for the network adapter sorry, SMC8014W-G and internet provided by Rogers http://www.smc.com/index.cfm?event=v...id=19&pid=1505 I don't know much of anything regarding NAT, however, I couldn't find anything in the router's webpage to turn off or alter NAT settings. Only NAT option was for port forwarding. Rogers (my ISP) says there is nothing they can do because I am getting internet service without issues on my desktop, therefore the router is functioning properly. SMC (router manufacturer) sends me back directions to unplug, wait 10 seconds and plug back in or speak to my ISP.
