I'm trying to use some of the forums advise to reconnect to my router but this has stumped me please help! Can't do a ipconfig/release ... operation requires elevation?

Right click on the Command Prompt in the Start Menu, and select Run as Administrator.

You have Vista, correct? You need to run commands as an administrator to be able to change anything

Typing this from memory, not on Vista right now.

Click the ball to open menu.
Type CMD in search. Should get CMD.exe as search result.
Right click on CMD.exe.
Select Run as administrator

Yet another way to do it.
