Cable Modem

by galehickey2 . Updated 23 years ago

I had cable hooked up and attempted to install a router but was having problems. Went back to the modem and now I cannot access the internet. Went to contol panel-internet connections and highlighted Lan or High Speed Connection and then “repair connection”.Following message “Repair failed-could not renew IP address”. Pinged 192.168.1.1-4 packets sent,4 lost.”Obtain an IP address automatically”
is checked as is “Obtain DNS server address automatically”.DHCP is enabled. Am at a loss.
Unless some drivers from the Linksys router I attempted to install is messing something up.
Also have an option to use dial-up but now that defunct.Any help would be appreciated.
