heh, reinstall the DHCP client on XP... idiot support detected!

You can possibly reinstall all of TCP/IP on XP (just select TCP/IP in an adapter's network properties and uninstall it... might work), but I haven't had a need to reinstall TCP/IP since the days of Win9x... I doubt it would make any difference.

What's the problem?

T_Bone, do you know of some documentation for the netsh command set?

Can't connect to the net at all. She can see the SURFboard Cable Modem. But there's no signal going out past the modem - got a firewall installed and that's not coming up for anything. Even stopped running the firewall and there's nothing.


Modem not installed properly?  Dead modem?  Try completely uninstalling it and reinstalling.

It's not a TCP/IP stack problem if the modem isn't even being communicated with.  Of course there's a DHCP problem, the (TCP/IP) protocol layer hasn't been estabished...

Are there some modem diagnostics that can be run?

T_Bone: Ta!
