Nic change - ip didn't refresh

[configure]

i recently changed my nic from netgear to intel
and my ip was changed
but the tcpipoptimzer still reports the old ip

[Lobo]

Why did your IP change?:)

[configure]

don't know
i am on cable and i guess removing the netgear card
and putting the Intel Pro 100 card in called for an ip change

Changing NIC will not change IP, just cable modem:) :) :)

[configure]

well the ip IS changed!
I use remote administrator to use my desktop at home
from work and i HAD to run home to run ipconfig
to see the new ip!

[Lobo]

If you are on the old @home network it will change since they were bought out:)

[configure]

will edit this ip after your answer Lobo

MTU = 1500
MTU is fully optimized for broadband.

MSS = 1460
Maximum useful data in each packet = 1460, which is equal to MSS.

Default Receive Window (RWIN) = 128480
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 1 bits
Unscaled Receive Window = 64240
RWIN is a multiple of MSS
Other values for RWIN that might work well with your current MTU/MSS:

Do you have router as sometimes it messes up IP, don't edit anything just detect automattically and not in LAN settings under internet options, connections:)

[configure]

no i don't have a router,
tonite i will try to close down the surfboard, the switch, my notebook and my desktop for one minute.
maybe the ip will be reshreshed then

[Lobo]

OK, But changing NIC will not change IP, for real dude:) :)

[configure]

ahh my technician at work just pointed out that my isp
gives me a dynamic ip adress.

But why is it tcpipoptimizer don't recognize this ?

[BaLa]

:) :o :D ;) :p :cool: :rolleyes: :rotfl:

[Lobo]

Don't worry about things that don't matter, be happy:p :p :p

[configure]

coming to this forum with newbie questions
is not ok right ?

[Lobo]

Yes it's fine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:) :) :)

[Kip Patterson]

Well, Configure's IP sure did change, and on many systems it does change when you change the NIC. Perhaps as many as one-half the cable modems in use are pre-DOCSIS and do not have a MAC address on the WAN side.

I believe that all of the Road Runner system ties the IP to the NIC.

[Lobo]

Oh OK sorry, I changed mine about 50 times and it never changed I thought they were all the same again, sorry:) :(

[configure]

i still ask myself; why does the tcpipoptimizer report the old ip ?

[Lobo]

I don't know, check Network connections in control panel to make sure what your IP is:)
