1.0.0.0

on my computer with XP on it i try to use the internet but is starts to say connecting to 1.0.0.0
whats wrong???
 
is your xpo machine picking up an ip address, (chech with ipconfig command) ?
does it have a proxy set?
 
It sounds like its loking up a proxy server with IP of 1.0.0.0 but obviously that doesnt exist, make sure there is NO proxy server selected. Then try connecting, also try "ipconfig /renew" in command prompt, see if that works.
 
also try "ipconfig /renew" in command prompt, see if that works.
He wont be able to renew an IP configuration that is wrong in the first place.. He'll need to set up DHCP on his router first, then make sure his computer is set to receive and IP automatically. (basics,... there could be other problems.. we'll have to ask more targeted questions..) :)
 
how would i do that???
IF you have a router it will be an option on there.
But first think is first
Answer the questions posed
1) Check your ip address by typing ipconfig into the command prompt.
Enter the detail you get here
2) Check if you have a proxy set up, under internet explorer that would be tools -> internet options -> connections tab, click internet options and look at where it says "proxy" this should be BLANK!
 
yes the proxy field is blank, when i type in the ipconfig thing it only stays there for less than a second. is there a way to make it not do that?
 
dont just type it into the run command line!
Load command promt
start -> run type "cmd" press enter
type "ipconfig" press enter

Thats what it said, i hope u can tell me how to fix it. all the blank spots ARE supposed to be there.
 
Woh, outta my league now, never seen any of that, is that something to do with IPv6 that you said, mine doesnt look anything like that an dive never EVER seen aything like that. What is it?
 
IPv6 is the next version of TCP/IP. It uses hex addressing. Teredo is the translator between v6 and the normal TCP/IP v4. Unless v6 is required by a certain website/server, or ISP, (non of which are usually the case), you don't need it. It can be uninstalled by going to your internet connection properties and remove it from there (reboot required), and can be reinstalled if needed. It comes packaged with XP service pack 2, but not installed. :)

the uninstallation of it MAY solve his problem and MAY not, hard to tell.. :)
 
Here is a definition of IPv6. You can find the rest of the article here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_address.

Wikipedia said:
IP version 6

In IPv6, the new (but not yet widely deployed) standard protocol for the Internet, addresses are 128 bits wide, which, even with generous assignment of netblocks, should suffice for the foreseeable future. In theory, there would be exactly 2128, or about 3.403 × 1038 unique host interface addresses. If the earth were made entirely out of 1 cubic millimetre grains of sand, then you could give a unique address to each grain in 300 million planets the size of the earth. This large address space will be sparsely populated, which makes it possible to again encode more routing information into the addresses themselves.

A version 6 address is written as eight 4-digit (16-bit) hexadecimal numbers separated by colons. One string of zeros per address may be left out, so that 1080::800:0:417A is the same as 1080:0:0:0:0:800:0:417A.

Global unicast IPv6 addresses are constructed as two parts: a 64-bit routing part followed by a 64-bit host identifier.

Netblocks are specified as in the modern alternative for IPv4: network number, followed by a slash, and the number of relevant bits of the network number (in decimal). Example: 12AB::CD30:0:0:0:0/60 includes all addresses starting with 12AB00000000CD3.

IPv6 has many improvements over IPv4 other than just bigger address space, including autorenumbering and mandatory use of IPsec.
