[SOLVED] – My computer won’t connect to the router when using ethernet cable
anotherdrew :
What happens if you manually enter an IP address. You will want to use one that no other computer is using. It might be best to log into the router and see what the DHCP lease range is and pick an address outside the range. For example, if the range is 192.168.0.10-192.168.0.100, then pick 192.168.0.101. Use your router’s IP address as the gateway address. You will also need DNS servers. You can use 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 (google DNS servers),
