Hi,
I'm going to put it really short.
1. Desktop connected to the internet via cable modem - ethernet cable connecting pc and motorola sb4200 cable modem
OK, now take the PC out of your mind and swap with a laptop.
2. Laptop is now connected to cable modem using ethernet cable however, can't renew IP address.
Why would the desktop connect fine but the laptop not? I don't need any USB drivers as i'm not using USB connection. Could it be my modem?
My laptop is a Fujitsu s6311.

I've tried turning it on and off before connecting to the laptop to no avail.
Is there any way of getting around the PC NIC?
