Limited or No Connectivity

Options
Hi

I am with AOL (I know but I have my reasons!). I tried to use another modem to no avail and when using the existing AOL modem and its software, I have hit a wall in the connection status.

I keep getting an error mesage stating:-

"Limited or No Connectivity" I then proceeded to try and repair this and then got a message saying:

"Windows could not finish repairing the problem because the following action cannot be completed.
Reneweing your IP address
For assistance, contact the person who manages your network"

I would be grateful if anyone who had had a similar problem to advise me on the best way to solve this please.

Thxs

    Hi Keith.

    Have you tried completely uninstalling the AOL software then beginning the install process again from scratch? That should sort you out with a bit of luck.

    Let us know if not. :)
