connecting new computer to router

when i go to start >run>cmd>then ipconfig

i get nothing for default gateway

but on the rest of the computers it says 192.168.1.1
 
still isnt working. it assigns an ip address and thsubnet mask but nothing for default gateway. please tell me what i have to do?
 
if you assign a static address/mask/gateway does everything work good?

have you installed anything pertaining to your network connection lately? added features, new nic, wireless card, etc?
 
no i havent installed anything. when i connect the computer straight to the modem it connects but i cannot visit websites
 
If you enter the IP of the Router to the Browser, do you get the Router's Menu system?

The long list of your system build in your signature is very nice but it is useless for Network/Internet trouble shooting.

It would be very useful if you divulge the nature of your Internet connection, the Router, and other Internet/Network information involved.
 
when i enter the ip address for the router it does not give me the routers menu sustem. a window pops up and it says "Internet Explorer could not open the search page."
 
Go to start > control panel > Network connections > Local Area Network and then click the "support" tab. For "Address Type" does it say "Assigned by DHCP" or "Automatic Private Address". Sounds like you're having the same trouble I am.
 
when i click repair a window pops up saying "windows could not finish repairing the problem because the following action cannot be completed: renewing your ip address"
 
If you cannot connect to your Router (assuming that the cable connecting the Computer to the Router is OK), it means that you do not have a viable Network Configuration on your computer.

Go back to the page that I linked before and walk to the process to evaluate and repair the Network Settings.

I repaired the link, http://www.ezlan.net/debug.html
 
when i go to the command prompt and put ipconfig/renew it says "an error occured while renewing interface local area connection :an operation was attempting on something that is not a socket."
 
Have you set any access restrictions for your router? For example, if you have enabled MAC filtering in the router menu, the new computer will not be able to connect to the router.
