The past few days, my computer has been having problems connecting to the wireless network at home. Almost every time the laptop goes to sleep, it self assigns an ip address and I cannot get online. I have tried restarting the computer, resetting the router and scrapping the airport preference file.
I have also contacted our internet provider who directed me to set up a new network location and to manually input the ip address. This hasnt worked either. Although the network setting no longer says the compute hasnt self assigned an ip address and says it is connected to the internet, I cant connect in the browser.
The IT guy said he was stumped and had no idea what is wrong.
The only thing I can think of doing at this stage is a complete reinstall, but would like to avoid that if there is any possible option remaining.
Any thoughts??
