Hi,

I have the following problem with my laptop running windows 2000:

When I boot my PC both my ethernet card as my WLAN card receive an IP
address from my DHCP server.

However, I can't access the internet or my LAN. Pinging to another
computer in the same subnet doesn't work.

When I do a ipconfig /renew, I get an error message that the DHCP server
can't be found.

Other computers on my network are working fine (but these are Mac's not
Windows....). My laptop worked yesterday and I haven't changed the
configuration.

Any ideas what this can be?
