Vista IP address conflict

by simon.pendlebury@ticketli . Updated 18 years, 6 months ago

Hi,

I’ve recently started using Vista Business and I’m getting a bizarre problem on my home network.

To summarize – My network is in the range 192.168.1.0. There are 6 computers on the network, all wireless, all with static IP addresses. All run XP Pro except my laptop which runs Vista Business.

Every few minutes when my wireless is turned on I get a message saying that I have an IP address conflict. On looking in the event viewer I see a message saying that “there is a conflict between 192.168.1.200 and the device with mac address 00-**etc”.

192.168.1.200 is the address of my router. The mac address shown is also my router.

This is really starting to annoy me now. Does anybody have any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Si
