Reset TCP/IP networking stack in Windows 7 and Vista

 

Sometimes your DHCP service is not able to pull an IP addresse, that means the network stack on Windows goes banana. To fix that, open command prompt with administrator privilege (click on Start -> type in “cmd” -> right click on the command prompt and choose “Run as Administrator”) and type these command:

netsh int ip reset C:\netsh.log.txt
netsh winsock reset

… then all your network configuration is reset.
