on the phone with cox right now
 

ugh this guy is an idiot all I want to do is renew my IP address and the fucker does not know how to telling me he tried and can;t

ooh..you said cox...uhuhuhuhuh

You called tech support to renew your IP addy and you think the tech is the idiot in this situation?

Too funny.

You can do that yourself

open an msdos prompt....

ipconfig /release

ipconfig /renew

Somebody always has to ruin the fun. :321GFY

um yeah whast so funny hthere?

danza try what i just suggested you...

tried ipconfig/release
ipconfig/renew and did not work

type ipconfig /renew

make sure there are spaces after ipconfig

start > run > cmd > ipconfig /release > ipconfig /renew

Based on the following reply, I would suggest that you try again when you are sober. :2 cents:

did you get it figured out danza?

I do that it works but does not renew my ip address

lol

"Gee Wally, I did that and it worked but it didn't work."

well arron even thought your post in this thread are usless as the whores you shoot.. thanks for bumping it

from a network engineer.
1 shutdown everything (cable modem, router if you have one, and computer)
2 wait 30 seconds
3 turn on cable modem
4 turn on router
5 turn on computer

if no router ignore the router
in computer open run command
type cmd
enter ipconfig
if you see an ip address with 169 in it your address is not workin
169.254.x.x actually
if you have a router you should see an address like this
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.2.2
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.2.1

if you don't have a router you should see a cox ip

if you need more help you can icq me

danza you're still online lol... try what the person above me recommended...

Funny. I seem to recall you asking me to hook you up with models last June.

I have no beef with you man. Don't be a prick to me just because I'm laughing at you. Learn to laugh at yourself a little.

BTW...I've shot some of the same "whores" that you have. Maybe all "whores" are worthless to you though.

yup, have had to do it many times...

but, yes cox tech support is also quite useless...

you laugh to.. I am not being an asshole sorry if I came off that way.. did not mean to... I asked you for whores last june? oh at cybernet thats right.. sorry bout that.. but in all honesty I think all females are worthless... and we need to just make this dollar off these whores

unplug your modem for 6 hours and they will give you a new IP... with my ISP that's how it works

:1orglaugh
there's a true pimp right there :thumbsup

I'm thinking he doesn't want to "renew" his ip. he just wants a different ip. probably got ip blocked someplace

Thats what im thinking, some ISP's give static IP addies. Ask for a dynamic IP or a new Static Address.

Sounds like you're on an IP lease. Even if I renew myself I still get the same ip until I try after the IP expires. Find out how long the IP lease is for then try renewing after that.

I think he means he wants to renew with a new IP, and was calling cox to see if they could cancel the lease on their DHCP servers (unlikely). If you put this thread together with Danza's earlier Epoch connectivity problems, it makes sense :glugglug

Change your fucking MAC address :)

His swiss cheese brain will explode if he has to try that. :warning
