So, here's the issue. It's a strange one too. I'm running a Toshiba Satellite laptop ( personal portable rig ), Windows 7 HM PRM x64, and just recently my computer started doing this strange thing. Every once in a while, I need to monitor some of my ip-based equipment that I have outside the realm of my network, so I set a static ip address on my laptop, and I can access my equpiment. The problem, lies in the fact that after I've set the static ip, when I go back to reset it back to DHCP under ipv4, the computer shows it as already being set back to DHCP, even though I'd set it to static just 2 minutes before. When I check the " details " button, it shows still as being statically set. Ipconfig /release, ipconfig /flushdns, ipconfig /renew don't help at all. I've already reset the winsock entries via netsh winsock reset. I've already deleted the physical adapter. The only fix is to reboot. But if I set a static ip address for any reason, it won't " un-set " unless I reboot.
Basically it goes
Set static ip
check equip
try to unset, to no avail.
reboot
back online
Set static ip
check equip
still can't unset
ipconfig stuff
netsh winsock
etc.
Any ideas?
I *did* have teamviewer 9, complete with their vnp installed, but uninstalled that. Still no change. I also *had* logmein Hamachi installed as well, so I could access my work network. Uninstalled that as well. Still no change. Problem still persists.
