I have recently experienced a problem with my main PC which is running W7 (64).
It is hard wired into a D Link DSL-G624T Router and has been for a year and a half without problems.
A week ago i started losing internet connectivity, and this was fixed with going through the WIndows resettinghelp process. However now i have no connection at all.
Firstly, i can confirm the wireless network and connections are fine as my 3 daughters can use there laptops and connect without issue.
However the main pc is dead, no connection.
I have read many threads on this forum which i believe are the same issue, with many associated fixes, none that seem to work for me.
THis is what i have tried so far;
Still i get no network, and if i run IPCONFIG i get an IP address of 169.254.123.12which is obviously worng as the other computers are using 192.168.1.2 and 3, 4 etc.
When i troubleshot the connection with WindowsNetwork Diagnostics i get a message saying "LAN doesnt have a valid IP configuration".
Im at a loss, its as though the router has died !
Any thoughts greatly appreciated.

THis is what i have tried so far;
- New cable from router to pc.
- Reset router, NIC etc many times.
- System restore to last month.
- In the CMD window IPCONFIG/RELEASE results in an error message saying no IP address has been set by ?
- In the CMD window IPCONFIG/RENEW results in an error message from DHCP and times out.
- Uninstalled BONJOUR.
