[QUOTE="MikeM, post: 1208503, member: 39238"] Generally, 192.x.x.x and 10.x.x.x are reserved for private networks and 169.x.x.x is a range set aside for failed DHCP attempts. I think that having a 169 DHCP range is confusing the system because it is expecting that to be an invalid range. changing the scope to 192. or 10. might correct the issue. Otherwise, there is a problem with the network stack of her machine. -MikeM [/QUOTE]
