Hey, I have been having problems with my hp dv9000 lap top for about a month. First wireless quit, but could still connect to the internet with ethernet cord. Finally I sent it to hp to fix but when i got it back i could connect to out network but not the internet. i contacted att and they said it was weird because the wireless and local area connection ip wouldnt find the correct ip address. i check the properties to see if the computer would find ip address automaticly and it was on the correct thing. i figured i would ask on here before paying to have a tech come and fix it.

the rep from att said the ip address should start with 192 but it starts with 168. please help

Please supply the following info, exact make and models of the equipment please.

Name of your ISP (Internet Service Provider).
Make and exact model of the broadband modem.
Make and exact model and hardware version of the router (if a separate unit).
Make and exact model and hardware version of any other network equipment, like a repeater, a booster, hi-gain antenna, etc.
Model numbers can usually be obtained from the label on the device.
Connection type, wired or wireless.
If wireless, encryption used, (none, WEP, WPA, or WPA2)

Please give an exact description of your problem symptoms, including the exact text of any error messages.

• If you're using a wireless connection, have you tried a direct connection with a cable to see if that changes the symptoms?
• For wireless issues, have you disabled all encryption on the router to see if you can connect that way?
• For wireless laptops, have you made SURE the wireless switch is on?
• For wired connection issues, have you booted in Safe Mode with Networking to see if that changes the symptoms?
• Have you connected directly to the broadband modem to see if this is a router or modem/ISP issue?
• If there are other computers on the same network, are they experiencing the same issue, or do they function normally?

On any affected computer, I'd also like to see this:

Hold the Windows key and press R, then type CMD (COMMAND for W98/WME) to open a command prompt:

Type the following commands on separate lines, following each one with the Enter key:

Right click in the command window and choose Select All, then hit Enter.
