Hello,

I'm not sure if this is the place to go for this issue but I was wondering if someone could help me reset my ipv4 settings. When I run cmd and type the command "ipconfig /all" the ipv4 address says duplicate in parentheses. I heard that these can cause conflicts and other issues which I would like to fix this somehow. The reason I believe this happened is because I accidentally turned off DHCP on my netgear router. I basically couldn't connect to the internet and after sometime meddling with the ipv4 settings and searching online for solutions, I just opted to do a hard reset. Afterwards I then configured my router with the same SSID and password as before and now I have internet with the DHCP turned back on. Yet my ipv4 address in the command prompt says its duplicate. So far there hasn't been any issues connecting to the internet, but I wouldn't be surprised if it starts acting up soon. Is there something I can do to "erase" any previous ip address or settings? I have also already tried that command "netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt" and that did not work.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thank you

What IPv4 address is being duplicated?

If you reset the Netgear router its" IP address most likely reverted to 192.168.1.1 or perhaps 192.168.0.1

The allowable range of DHCP IP addresses probably changed as well.

ipconfig /all should provide the IP via the listed DHCP Server IP.

Do you remember setting or know of any static IPs being established for any devices on your network?

Start by looking at each device and making note of where it is getting its IP address if DHCP or if the device has a static IP assigned.

Identifying the devices with duplicate IPs will help determine how to fix things again.

Thank you, I apologize for taking long to reply. I was able to check that my pc was being reserved the same ip twice if that makes sense I guess. I've tried to change it but I ultimately did a network reset on my PC and was able to resolve the issue.
