I know you're all going to snicker when you read this question but remember (please) I'm on heavy duty pain drugs. What is the command to renew and release all network connections?
A friend of my wife's brought a Presario F700 with Vista Premium that cannot connect wirelessly and I cannot even get it to connect via ethernet. sometimes being perpetually stoned had its drawbacks
Thanks
Jack

ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
all else fails ipconfig -help will get you the other switches.

Dont worry Skipp, I had to read every post on here to know what was being asked..It's funny how one of the the most fundamental things to know is also the most forgotten one

(in my case anyway) lol

In between the release and renew commands I like to throw in ipconfig /flushdns.
