I have a 2 - 3 year old intel iMac that I run windows on. Recently, my Windows partition will not connect to the internet. It stopped very suddenly, and the only thing that seemed to have happened was... "numerous restarts in quick succession". It will try for a minute or so, then fail and say "Limited or no Connectivity" (in a very vague, windows like way -.-).

After trying an ipconfig /release and /renew, it will come up with "unable to contact DHCP server", and as my OSX partition connects fine. I use a wireless connecting, but have tried to connect the modem directly to my computer, which still comes up with the same problem.

I've done a ton of google searches to find a solution, and decided to come here to see if anyone else has ever had this problem. I'm on Comcast Cable and have a Arris modem. I know I can always just delete the partition and reinstall windows, but it would be much simpler to just fix this damn problem.

:confused:
