Hello,
my HP Elitebook 8470p has a builit-in Intel Ultimate N-6300 wireless card and a 82579LM Network installed. It happens, when I wake up of my laptop after a 'Sleep' mode or when I change Wireless Network that the laptop joins the Network (recognizing it) but then it doesn't get the IP address from the relevant router.
I tried nearly everything to fix the issue, even change the Wireless Card. The problem is not the Networks I connect to, since I have been connecting to them since years with other laptops (home and work) never suffering such an issue.
The Microsoft Windows 7 troubleshooting says that "Windows cannot automatically detect this network's proxy setting'.
The funny thing is that, if I plug a cable to the same router (and the connection works properly), after a certain time, also the wireless gets the IP address! There's something blocking this task, BUT WHAT?
The ipconfig command when I've this problem, shows the default IP address (169.254.67.62) and if you try to execute the /release option the output is that the 'Media is disconnected'.
Can anyone help me in this?
Thanks in advance!
