Hey everyone...i'm a newbie to ip addresses and what not but based on what I've been looking at I have a similar problem to others except I don't understand the solutions.
I have a laptop with built in wireless adapter (included I didn't install) Intel pro wireless 2200BG network connection
Now it has always worked fine except yesterday packets were sent but 0 packets were received
I ran a cmd and ping ebay.com with not able to contact host. (cause i saw that on the forum)
I went to three different HOTSPOT WIFI locations to test if it was just my router but it still didn't work.
In my internet connection options it says INVALID IP before assigning an AUTOMATIC IP
Connects...however cannot browse the web or contact any hosts.
SO, I connected directly to my broadband modem and I can now browse the web and packets are obviously received but I cannot ping ebay.com (REQUEST IS TIMED OUT)
My local IP is PINGING at
