When I open a command prompt and try to release my IP, I get this error.

Are you trying to release the address for a wired or wireless adapter?

Double post!

Wired.

Wired.

But is there a problem? The wired adapter seems to actually have released its address, the only one showing is the link-local IPv6 address beginning with FE80, which is expected to be there.

So what is actually not working?
