DHCP, the IP-assignment protocol, can be turned off on routers make sure it’s on. If you’re behind a router and you don’t get an IP address, then you need to confirm your physical connection, and more likely your router’s configuration.

“0.0.0.0” is no IP address, and a “169.” is an address that Windows will simply make up in order to have an address – but most things won’t work.
If instead you see “0.0.0.0” or an address that begins with “169.”, then Windows was unable to get an IP address. Along with “ Dhcp Enabled” being “Yes”, this implies that I’m behind a router, and that the router has assigned me my IP address. That’s one of the address ranges reserved for private networks. This listing, from my own machine, shows an IP address beginning with 192. We’re first going to look at the IP address assigned. : 3Com 3C918 Integrated Fast Ethernet Controller (3C905B-TX Compatible) You should see something very much like this: Windows IP Configuration Open a command prompt, and type “ipconfig /all”, followed by Enter.

I’ll assume Windows 7 at this point, but much of this applies to pretty much any version. Let’s examine what your machines are seeing.
So let’s say you have a router, or your ISP will hand out multiple IP addresses. Another side effect of using a NAT router is that you are very effectively firewalled and protected from several different internet threats. It’ll do some magic (called NAT, for Network Address Translation) to make sure each computer’s conversations on the internet are kept straight. A broadband router will take the single IP address for itself, and then hand out multiple local IP addresses to all the computers connected to it. Typically the first one to request the IP address will win and be able to work. If you just put in a hub, then both computers are competing for the single IP address. Details we can look at.įirst, let’s make sure that the “ hub/ router” is in fact a router. That’s important because most ISPs (and, notoriously, most all cable ISPs) will give you one and only one IP address. But exactly what problem depends on a few details. I feel that if it was an equipment problem, the interenet problems would be all of the time and not just in the morning.I suspect pretty much what you’ve indicated: a problem in the IP address assignment. It's really weird how we only have this problem in the morning. Just kept insisting that the problem was at our end. ISP says problem on our end, maybe we need new filter/splitter and when I explained that we were using a new/filter splitter that came with the new modem, they didn't want to know about it. We do have a cordless phone that is 2.4 GHZ, but we have had this phone for years and we've not had problems with it interfering. When I plugged the phone back in the connection dropped out again. Connected modem straight into phone jack waited 1/2 hr and we had good internet connection. When we turn on the computer, it is up and running immediately. Internet works fine when we get home in the afternoon. We have done numerous ping tests and speed tests. We also bought a wireless modem/router (netgear DGN1000). We have replaced the ethernet cable, moved modem closer to phone jack, new phone cable, new filter. Rang isp following their trouble shooting tips and they tell us that on their end they can see that our modem is connected and getting the proper speed. Later in the morning and for the rest of the day we haave connection albeit it can be quite slow at times. All lights were on the old modem (iconnect 622). Have been having this problem for 2 - 3 weeks now.Įvery morning we boot up desktop computer and we have no internet connection.
