I am trying to solicit your feedback as to how I can change the subnet mask on one of the notebooks. Currently I have 4 PC's on my network and one of the notebooks subnet mask is different than the other 3 computers and will not renew or release.
I can access other wireless networks but cannot access the internet when I am home.
If you are using a manually assigned IP address simply change the subnet mask (in TCP/IP Properties) to what you want. However, I doubt that your question is relevant to "cannot access the internet when I am home."
How about posting the following for a working machine and the non-working one when connected to the network it fails on.
Hold the Windows key and press R, then type CMD to open a command prompt:
In the command prompt window that opens, type type the following command:
Note that there is a space before the /ALL, but there is NOT a space after the / in the following command.
IPCONFIG /ALL
Right click in the command window and choose Select All, then hit Enter.
Paste the results in a message here.
If you are on a machine with no network connection, use a floppy, USB disk, or a CD-RW disk to transfer a text file with the information to allow pasting it here.
