Cox high speed internet just came to our home and it's been connected to my desktop pc(OS:win98) perfectly.
I got also laptop pc(OS:winXP), so I pull Ethernet cable
out of desktop and stick it in to my laptop Ether connector.
...won't connect to the internet.
Cable modem is working as long as desktop pc has no problem
connecting the internet, Ether cable also. and my laptop
Ether(Built-in, Intel PRO/100 VE Network Connection) shows no
error, everything seems fine to me but it won't connect.
Besides, it's been working at my office LAN, so can't be broken.
My desktop pc is picking up IP address of 68.10...subnet but
laptop pc has 192.168...subnet besides no G/W address picked up, could ping itself but anywhere else.
I don't remember what I did any more, I did so many things which
could possibly solve this problem, but it won't go away.
If someone who know how to deal with it, please help me!!
