Back again with another prob!
When i try to get online i get Acquiring network address and that is how it stays, can't get online at all. I have tried to use windows to repair but that fails any ideas? I use xp and a netgear modem.

Is it a wireless connection? If so you have either got the DHCP Server disabled in the Netgear Router or the WiFi passkey incorrect.Insane_Drifter wrote: »Back again with another prob!

I get it occasionally and in 99% of cases it's nothing to do with the passkey but the router has thrown a wobbly and needs rebooting.
Generally it just affects one computer on the network with all the others working perfectly0
