where's my IP?

OS: win98
I tried releasing and renewing my ip and i'm still getting 0.0.0.0.I tried to uninstall and reinstall my tcp/ip adapter already.

Is it a cable connection or is it a wireless connection?

Are you sure the cable works?

Are you sure it's fully in?

Is the switch/hub/router that the cable is connected powered on?

Is there an active DHCP server on the network you're on?

Are you able to ping localhost?

Is there a firewall blocking the DHCP server request?

I'm using ethernet cable.I already tried 2 ethernet cables.The router is on and the lights works fine.I cannot ping the host either.

If you cannot ping 127.0.0.1

then your card is not installed right....

edit> or the card is not working...its a dud<

or
TCP\IP is not installed or working.

Remove TCP\IP and the adapter ..reboot

and start again.
