    Dell will not recognize ethernet connection
    Dell optiplex 170L will not recognize the ethernet connection. It claims
    Is not connected to any internet. I know the connection works because
    There was a windows 2000 there before it was replaced by dell xp.
    This my work computer in a net work. When connection was checked
    At our main office I was told there was nothing connected in my
    Location. The connection on my computer said the reason was
    Because it was never given a IP address. According to my computer
    In the control panel it is showing it has one. Is there something that
    Needs to be done to the computer that would block out the Ip? Can sure the help on this. Thanks again
