Loss Broadband Connection

Every time I have to restart my computer I lose my cable connection and have
to use ipconfig then ipconfig /renew to get it working again. I had this
problem earlier, and nothing I have tried has worked. I am running XP Home
SP2 with a USB cable modem, and no router. All known drivers are up to date,
and there isn’t any problem listed in the device manager. I have uninstalled
and re installed Zone Alarm and Norton’s, run spybot searches, virus checks
with up to date programs,and turned off the Windows firewall.

Any other ideas? I, my cable company, and microsoft are clean out.

Error Log (there was and address, I put in the stars):

Unable to contact a DHCP server. The Automatic Private IP Address
***.***.***.*** will be assigned to dial-in clients. Clients may be unable to
access resources on the network.

For more information, see Help and Support Center at
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.

Just had ands solved a similar problem on my son's Dell. It
seems that an update to Norton Internet Security was
automatically blocking XP services, such as the application
gateway layer service and basically any application that
tried to connect to the Internet. Even turning Norton off
did not fix the problem, what ever registry that it set was
not reset. After several days of trying to reset with
ipconfig, using the repair button in the network properties
(cache could not be cleared, didn't work) ended up deleting
the C: partition (just OS and apps) and doing a clean
install. It was during this that Norton problem was
identified.

That sounds right, about the same time, I was having trouble with Nortions
System Works update and uninstalled it. Is a clean install the only way to
fix it? The idea of having to do that makes me shutter.

The Symantec support site has a tutorial on how to manually remove System
Works and it helped. I was able to get back my connection after clicking
"repair connection" when I restarted, but it still shows error when trying to
clear the APR cache, and it doesn't start automatically like it should

I think that if you had the time to open Norton, find and
manually fix each blocked application and port, you could
fix it. My problem was that my son lives nearly fifty miles
away and I don't have a car right now. I rode with him from
his work and had to be back the next morning. After several
hours trying to find the problem with his connection, I just
ran out of time about 11:30 PM. A format and reinstall at
that point seemed the quickest and fastest. If you have the
time to open and read all the Norton manual, find out how to
turn off its damn automatic features, then you can probably
fix it.

I just thought that I could save somebody the search for a
reason.
If you haven't done so, export your email settings,
addresses and IE favorites to a floppy, CD or flash disk,
that will save you a lot of trouble.

We had the same problem with the APR cache and repair didn't
work, neither did ipconfig. A format and clean install
fixed everything. It occurred to me that computer repair
shops are charging $50-75 an hour so pretty quick it would
be cheaper to just order a new computer.

Thanks for the help. Your right, I am just going to have to buckle down and
reinstall. I don't have to reformat the hard drive to do that will I?

Maybe not, but I was just fed up with the problem and a
format was the sure way to eliminate the issue.

I had a similar problem with NIS and that is why I removed it from my Dell
and went with a different product. I now use Sygate and I am not having any
problems. Not to say that NIS is a bad product...but it shouldn't be doing
that. Norton is a good company to deal with though and has great tech
support. Just my .02$

No you shouldn't have to reformat. Just do an uninstall from the Add/Remove
Programs. Make sure you remove all Symantec software in the list and reboot.
Log back in and do a reinstall from the CD. That should work fine.

Yes, it has a good support page at www.SARC.com and I did
find the NIS 2004 manual (over 4 MB PDF) and it does allow
manual settings, but the default automatic settings are just
too aggressive. Plus, even when we turned the program off,
it still held the settings and did not release the ports and
applications.

Zone Alarm is much easier to use and is an excellent
firewall.

I would set the firewall to a low setting before
uninstalling, in case the uninstall of NIS left the ports
blocked.

with

was

spybot

Windows

| | |
