I have 5 HP Pavilions working to broadband on a peer-to-peer network. Four work OK. If I set up the fifth to work to the broadband router it works fine until I switch of, then it says there is no network. The NIC is seeing the network (says a cable is unplugged if I dis it), but it won’t get an ip address (DHCP) from the router. If I repair the connection it works OK until the next time. I have restored it to day one – no good. I have downloaded all MS patches – no good. Any ideas?
