Anyone ever had this happen? If so, how do you recover?
Took 2 laptops to NYC. Hotel had weird connection issues, so had to change dynamic IP to static IP in hotel.
When done, put 'puters back to dynamic.
Got home, connected to office network, I can connect both to internet.
Neither will connect to system network.
Both are seen on system network, both can see the system network.
When I attempt to access either from network to laptops, or from laptop to network, I get a message that says "Network not accessible, you may not have permission, etc, etc."
If I access the ipconfig of whatever machine on the network I want to access, and use that IP in my command prompt of the laptop, I can get on the network via that method, but I need to access several different computers and printers at one time and can't access this way.
Mapping to a specific computer won't work, because as soon as that computer is rebooted, the dynamic address shifts of both the laptops and/or the desktop.
I've run LSPFix, I've run every network utility I can think of, I've rejoined the network on both laptops.
I know it's not the server or switch, or DSL modem, as there are laptops and desktops that didn't travel that all access the network just fine. Both Mac's and PC's are connected, and as mentioned, desktops and laptops can see these two laptops that traveled. And the two laptops can see the other desktops and laptops. The network is a mix of wired and wireless. The two laptops have been tried both wired and wireless as to trying to access.
This is incredibly frustrating. Any good IT guys out there?
