Hi all, while since I shown my face around here!
I have just reformatted a laptop in the house and came to wire it up to the router for updates etc, it's on the same workgroup.
Plugged it in, IP was assigned (by DHCP - no conflict) , default gateway correct, tried to open IE, nothing. Hmm, ok.
Went to my routers network address, Page Cannot be displayed...Hmmmm!
On examination the network connection has a MAC address of 00-00-00-00-00-00
I can browse accross the network to my desktop, and vice versa, ping etc
I cannot ping the router.
Anyone got any ideas? I'm stumped.
