i have been having issues for some time now getting my computer to connect to the internet. every time i try the repair option i keep getting the ERROR - renewing you ip address. i thought it was a hardware issue so i have replaced the NIC card twice with no luck and have recently purchased and installed a USB wireless adapter (linksys)
i have also tried on multiple ocassions to do the cmd ipconfig release/renew with no luck. below i have posted the full log of what i have tried regarding ipconfig. one thing that i notice is it says:
"No operation can be performed on Local Area Connection while it has its media disconnected."
PLEASE HELP!!!!!
