Goal: Establish network connection between Dell Vostro 230 ethernet adapter and router using a cable.
This PC was not in use for few years. Recently installed Windows 10 on it. Not sure before Windows 10 installation network was working or not.
What is working...
* Able to access the network using same cable & router from another Laptop
* After putting the cable in Dell Vostro 230, red cross in Ethernet Network Connection goes off
* Windows 10 OS is working fine, all device drivers are green
* Network card shows static green & flickering orange light
* ping to 127.0.0.1 is successful
What is not working...
* automatic IP assignment through router's DHCP
* ever after manual IP assignment, ping to gateway/router IP fails
Driver details.....
Driver Provider: Microsoft
Driver Date: 8/18/2015
Driver Version: 15.6.13
"ipconfig" command shows the following details......
Autoconguration IPV4 Address : 169.254.200.188
Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0
Default gateway:
"ipconfig /renew" command does not work, it just hangs there
Want to know what is the issue?
1. Is ethernet card not working & needs to be replaced?
2. OR Is network driver not working?
