Vista will not get an IP address from my ADSL router
Hey, I have a draytek 2600 WE router and i have it connected to my computer via a cable. When i run vista it will not get an IP address from the router at all. Therefore the internet doesnt work. I have the newest firmware for the router. It works fine in XP. Does anyone know how to solve this?

Hi, Can you get us the NETMON traces and DHCP CLient traces ? 1. Info of the exact build number. (Winver will give you this) 2. Output of ipconfig /all. 3. Enable DHCP tracing. (Run the command from an elevated prompt:- netsh dhcpclient trace enable) 4. Start capturing packets on the network using netmon (you can install Microsoft Network Monitor from http://netmon for this, Also you need to run from elevated prompt on client machines) 5. Perform the repro steps that caused the failure for you. 6, Output of ipconfig /all. (You have to do ipconfig /all again to capture the packets in netmon) 7. Stop the netmon. 8. Stop DHCP tracing.(Run the command:- netsh dhcpclient trace disable) 9. Send the %windir%\system32\dhcp*.etland %windir%\System32\LogFiles\WMI\dhcp*.etl file. 10. Send the netmon capture. 11. Send System event logs (runeventvwr -> Windows Logs ->System) Steps to download the NETMON Go to http://connect.microsoft.com Sign in with your passport account Choose "Available Connections" on the left Choose "Apply" for Network Monitor 3.0 (once you've finished with the application, the selection appears in your "My Participation" page) Go to the Downloads page (On the left side), and select the appropriate build 32 or 64 bit build.
