Question : pc acquires ip address but can't ping router or internet
|
|
pc acquires ip address but can't ping router or internet connected to netgear router and was working this morning. Changed routers and second one didn't work so I reverted back to the original and now it will connect, acquire, but then can't ping even the gateway much less anything else. Repair does not fix.

Answer : pc acquires ip address but can't ping router or internet

Thank everyone... turned out to be Intel Wireless Pro software causing the problem. By disabling it I could connect and get to the internet. Reenable the Intel Wireless Pro and it was like being firewalled. Despite being able to acquire an address I could not ping the router, the pc with its own ip address or any internet ip. Kill the Pro Wireless and connected just fine. Probably an uninstall/reinstall would have fixed it but client was satisfied as it was.
