    Unable to renew IP address - receiving Media Disconnected Error Code


    I use two different portals on my laptop Lenovo for a part time job and also a medically necessary portal. I received errors from one of the sites saying that my IP address is showing it's inconsistent with my location as if I'm using a VPN, which matters for my medical portal. I tried to renew my IP address to reset it, but am getting disconnected media responses. I'm not a technician and am not very tech savvy so please make responses as simple as possible thank you!. Their IT support was of little help. Could someone walk me through how I could fix this please? I'm using an owned router

    :)

    Renewing IP address

    Hey book4worm,

    first of all, I'd suggest to upgrade to Windows 10 since you'll get a ton of security features and updates that XP is missing out on.

    But to renew your IP address:

    1. Open the start menu and click on Run...
    2. Type cmd.exe. A black window will appear.
    3. Type ipconfig /renew and hit Enter.
    4. Windows will try to receive a new IP address from your DHCP server.
    If this issue persists or if the command fails, check the settings of your wifi router.

    Cheers!

    Unable to renew IP address - receiving Media Disconnected Error Code

    Trying to renew IP but get media disconnected error

    Every time I do ipconfig release/renew command I keep getting:
    No operation can be performed on Ethernet while it has its media disconnected.No operation can be performed on Local Area Connection* 2 while it has its media disconnected.

    Those commands when trying to renew IP Address. How can I fix?
