Hi,
May be your IP has expired and the DNS server didn't renew it. Just go to start >> run >> print "cmd" to get into the command prompt window. Now write ipconfig /renew.
If it doesn't work write ipconfig /flushdns >> press enter and then ipconfig /renew.

maybe you have your dhcp client service turned off

hi
thank you very much.it worked

thank you
