Today's Tech Tip is how to diagnose and fix network issues that you may incur. Issues connecting to the internet or simply no connection to the network resources from a particular computer. Here are some basic commands to use to diagnose network problems.
Start --> Run --> type 'cmd' -- this will bring up the Command Prompt Dialog Box
type 'ipconfig /all' to display all the network connections for your network. this allows the user to check to make sure that there is a network connection, IP Address, default gateway and subnet mask are all correct.
Next you can try to Ping the IP Address of the computer in question to make sure that it can be researched via network connection.
To go further into the network diagnosis process you can run a tracert. A simple way to run the tracert is by going to www.tracert.com and then type in your IP address and run the trace this will do all the hardwork for you.
The tracert determines what package has stopped working on the network, this will let you know if it is the router or the network.
