2 wired W7 machines, 1 wireless Vista laptop. Had this set up for months, no problems. (expect i had to set them all static IPs to stop em from stealing IPs from each other)
DG834GT Router, Just turned upstairs computer on (W7 , wired) and it has no internet connection but the other W7 machine (that im currently on) and the laptop are fine . Windows diagnostic just says "router connectivity problems, restart router".
Any ideas? had this exact set up for months...
Which router firmware
No idea as i dont know what the router password is to login to it (admin , password doesn't work)

Do a factory reset and start again with your own password.
password seems to be working for now...
so, Firmware Version V1.03.22, now updating to 1.03.23.
Any ideas? (couldn't edit for some reason?) connection seems to be dropping mid use now, very annoying when trying to play games. Im not sure if the connection is fully dropping tho, no notification from windows or anything just games discon along with what other 3rd party IM/VoIP im using.
New error:
""Local Area Connection" doesn't have a valid IP configuration "
Try Start > Run > CMD, then type ipconfig /renew. Does that help?
