Added my router IP into the TRUST list in my Norton Internet Security. Able to grab the DHCP assigned IP now. Weird as previously there was no issue. Something must've corrupted the NIS settings... so weird.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
Suddenly, my network card no longer able to obtain an IP from my router's DHCP. It was working fine yesterday but today I am getting the &quot;LIMITED CONNECTIVITY&quot; error. However, when I assigned static IP to it, I am able to get back the connection. Everything works fine. But I am lost as to why obtaining the IP automatically has failed...<br />
<br />
1) I've tried WinsockxpFix<br />
2) I've changed cable and router port<br />
3) I've changed PCI slot<br />
4) I've tried another NIC card<br />
5) Restarted PC &amp;&nbsp;Router numerous times<br />
6) Other PCs using cable &amp;&nbsp;wireless are fine<br />
<br />
Anyone have any idea? Please help (OS: Windows XP SP2, Dlink WBR-2310, Realtek NIC)

Fail to Obtain IP Automatically, Manual Assign IP OK

Networking hardware includes the physical devices facilitating the use of a computer network. Typically, networking hardware includes gateways, routers, network bridges, modems, wireless access points, networking cables, line drivers, switches, hubs, and repeaters. But it also includes hybrid network devices such as multilayer switches, protocol converters, bridge routers, proxy servers, firewalls, network address translators, multiplexers, network interface controllers, wireless network interface controllers, ISDN terminal adapters and other related hardware.

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is an auto configuration protocol used on IP networks and an extension of the Bootstrap Protocol. DHCP allows for computers to be configured automatically to communicate with each other over an IP network without the need for manual setup by a network administrator. The implementation of DHCP relies on a DHCP server to hand out network configuration information to DHCP-capable clients that request an IP address (and other information required or useful in communicating with other devices on an IP network). In addition to an IP address, common configuration information served over DHCP includes a default gateway, subnet mask and DNS sever(s).

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.
