    Problem:
    Whenever I repair my network it goes through all the steps up until Renewing the IP. At that point it sort of pauses and continues trying to renew the IP.

    Facts:
    • I am on a wireless network with my notebook
    • This never happened before
    • Recently I was messing around with the services on my notebook
    • I can still get online while the computer tries to renew the IP
    • My notebook has a static IP


    Any help would be great. If you need more information please ask. Thank you in advance.

    Wireless thru a router?
    Is there a reason that you have a static ip?

    And set your default gateway to the clean side IP of the router.

    It has always been enabled and it never caused a problem, plus not all the computers on my network are static anyway

    sorry I don't know what that means


    just so everyone knows, this problem is only happening on my laptop, the other computers are fine so the problem isn't with the router
