Appendix C: Renewing Your PC’s

IP Address

Occsionally, your PC may fail to renew its IP address, which will keep it from

connecting to your Cable ISP. When this happens, you will not be able to

access the Internet through your Cable Modem. This is fairly normal, and

does not indicate a problem with your hardware. The procedure to correct

this situation is simple. Follow these steps to renew your PC’s IP address:

For Windows 95, 98, or Me users:

1. From your Windows 95, 98, or Me desktop, click the Start button, point to

Run, and click to open the Run window.

6. Find and double-click TCP/IP in the list to the right (below).

7. After a few seconds you will be brought back to the main Network win-

dow. The TCP/IP Protocol should now be listed.

8. Click OK. Windows may ask for original Windows installation files.

Supply them as needed (i.e.: D:\win98, D:\win95,

c:\windows\options\cabs.)

9. Windows will ask you to restart the PC. Click Ye s .

The TCP/IP Installation is complete.
