This is a Vista box so there is no way to uninstall TCP/IP via GUI. &nbsp;I did remove and reinstall it with the netsh command as well as resetting the Winsock and Firewall. &nbsp;None of that has worked as of yet.

A Vista laptop I am working on will not obtain a DHCP address for either the wired or wireless interfaces.  It consistantly configures networking with an APIPA address.  No other computers are having this issue.  I used NETSH to uninstall and re-install IPv4 and reset IPv6, yet it still has the same problem.  Static IPs work fine.

Vista network interfaces will not obtain DHCP addresses.

The Internet Protocol (IP) is the principal communications protocol in the Internet protocol suite for relaying datagrams across network boundaries, organized in abstraction layers, traditionally called "Link," "Internet," "Transport" and "Application”. Its routing function enables internetworking, and essentially establishes the Internet. IP defines packet structures that encapsulate the data to be delivered. It also defines addressing methods that are used to label the datagram with source and destination information.
