Ipconfig doesn't work!

The connections work fine. By tcp/ip repair I assume that
you mean to choose the repair option when right clicking
on the adapter. Repair gives this error message: "the
following steps of the repair operation failed: flushing
the arp cache. Please contact your network administrator
or ISP."

I also tried the netsh int ip reset command and rebooted.
It made no difference.

Another note: dhcp works fine, but if I
try "ipconfig /renew" I get the following message: "the
operation failed as no adapter is in the state permissible
for this operation."

Any more ideas?
Thank you!

Ever had a 3rd party firewalls on the machine? Try uninstalling them.
