Set Windows

to
automatically detect IP settings
Consult your network administrator
before attempting this change.
This procedure allows your computer to automatically detect IP
settings, which may allow you to connect to the Internet.
If your computer is new, it may not have an IP address, which
is required for Internet access. If you do not need a static IP
address for some special purpose, you can set your computer to
automatically detect the IP settings (see steps 1-6, below).
If your network uses static IP addresses, you should not
follow the procedure below. You will have to enter the IP
address assigned to you by your service provider.
If you use this computer on another network (perhaps at
your workplace), you should consult a technician familiar with
the network before attempting this change.
Record all settings before changing them in case you need
to restore them later.
