Thanks in advance, Phil. Sunday, February 26, PM. Don't think it can be this for 2 reasons : 1. You might give this a try. I have had this identical issue; Renamimg the NIC fixed my problem!
Assign the IP Address. Most of the downtime's are caused because of SysAdmin's curiosity! Net Framework 2. They can be reinstalled after installing the new Broadcom drivers. The problem is that an entry in the registry does not get removed when uninstalling the Broadcom drivers. You can remove the entry and reset the static IP to resolve the issue. I spoke with Dell regarding this and they sent me the process. You shouldn't need a reboot, but my server did. The link below has you remove a few other registry entries but I didn't.
It also has you remove the drivers for the NIC but if you have the latest drivers it may not me necessary. The steps above were all that I did and the problem was resolved.

Values under the latter keys are specific to each adapter. Otherwise, you must restart the computer for a change in any of these parameters to take effect. They may be modified by using Registry Editor Regedit. These parameters generally do not exist in the registry. They may be created to modify the default behavior of the NetBT protocol driver. The following parameters can be set through the Connection Properties from the Network Connections folder.
You do not have to configure them directly. The following parameters are created and used internally by the NetBT components. Skip to main content. This browser is no longer supported.

Given the routing table shown above, the system will attempt to use default gateway This discussion is only about default gateways. If a specific route to a destination is included in the routing table, it is always preferred over the default route for packets addressed to that specific destination. Both of the default gateways in the table shown above are reached through the same interface In the routing table shown below, a metric of 5 was manually entered for the The metric defines the order of precedence among routers that can reach the same destination.
The lower the metric, the lower the cost, and thus the more preferred the route. When multiple gateways are defined for a single destination, only one gateway is active at any one time. Windows Server uses the gateway with the lowest metric. If multiple gateways have the same metric, Windows uses the first gateway listed. Only if the preferred gateway is down or otherwise not accessible does it attempt to use additional gateways. Specifying multiple default gateways has limited utility because it requires that more than one router be directly attached to the same local network as the host, and that more than one of those routers be capable of reaching all destinations.
In many cases where there is more than one router on the network some of the routers only reach other internal networks and therefore are not suitable to be default routers.
It is simply not flexible enough because it can only be used to define default gateways. If static routes are required, use the route command, which is available through the Windows Server command interface. It lets you manually configure the routes in the routing table.
The command syntax is:. Flush all of the routes from the routing tables. If used with one of the commands, the table is flushed before the command is executed. Create a permanent route that is reinstalled in the routing table every time the system boots.
The command field specifies the action that the route command should take. There are four command keywords:. The netmask is applied to the address provided in the destination field to determine the true destination of the route.
If a bit in the netmask is set to 1 , the corresponding bit in the destination field is a significant bit in the destination address. For example, a destination of If no value is specified for the netmask , it defaults to Assume we are configuring a system that has the IP address In the following example we add a route to the host In each case, the address mask determines if the route is interpreted as a network route or a host route.
After entering the new routes, we display the routing table with the route print command to examine our handiwork:. As the display shows, there are several more routes than the two we just entered. All of the other routes are part of the basic routing table, which is described in Chapter 2. The routes we are interested in are both listed in the Persistent Routes section of the route print display. Routes added by the route add command will not survive a boot without the -p option.
Use the -p option when you want to add permanent static routes to the routing table. The -p option is not used when the routes are installed for some temporary purpose, such as troubleshooting. Note that the default metric used with the route command is 1. The default metric can be overridden on the route command-line using the metric argument, as in the example above. The sample system used in this example has only one network interface adapter.
All of the routes added by the route add command are associated with that interface. When more than one network interface is available, Windows selects the default interface for a route based on the gateway address used for the route. For example, if the gateway address shows that the gateway is on network To manually specify the interface a route should use, add the if argument to the route command-line. The interface should be specified by its interface number—not by its IP address.
The interface number is the first field displayed for each interface in the Interface List section of the routing table. On our sample system, the interface number associated with the D-Link Ethernet card is 0x The following route add command associates the route to network Use the route command only when your system requires complex static routes. Most workstations use a single default route, allowing that default router to redirect packets as necessary. The client portion of DNS, which is called the resolver , must be configured on every system.
To customize the resolver configuration, select the DNS tab , which is shown in Figure Additional DNS servers provide added redundancy, but they rapidly reach a point of diminishing returns. Each server is queried in turn, but only after the server above it in the list fails to respond to the query. Each server is queried multiple times and each query is given a reasonable timeout.
These timeouts add up if too many servers are placed in this list, which unnecessarily makes the user wait for the inevitable error message. If the servers are properly chosen, they are not all going to be down at the same time. It is far more likely that multiple servers are unreachable at the same time because of a network problem or a local problem.
Adding more servers to the list, cannot fix a network problem. Two well-chosen servers are adequate, and three are probably the most you want. If you cannot contact any of three different well-chosen servers, the problem is not with the remote servers; it is with the network or your local system.
Use the Add, Edit, and Remove buttons as needed to configure the list of servers. Use the up and down arrow buttons to arrange the servers in the order that you want them searched. When Windows needs to resolve an IP address, it starts with the first server on the list. If that server is unavailable, it then tries the second server. If that server fails to respond, Windows continues to try servers in the order they are listed until it either is able to resolve the address or runs out of servers to try.
Two option buttons and a checkbox in the middle of the DNS tab are used to configure how Windows qualifies unqualified hostnames. An unqualified hostname is a hostname without an associated domain name. When the resolver builds a DNS query for an unqualified hostname, the hostname is extended to a fully qualified domain name before the query is passed to the name server. The domain name the resolver appends to the hostname depends on which options are selected.
In Figure , the sample value entered in this box is sales. The primary DNS suffix, however, is not configured through this window. It is configured on the Computer Name tab of the System Properties dialog. In the System Properties window, select the Computer Name tab. Click Change to open the Computer Name Changes window. Figure shows this dialog. Given the values in Figures and , the primary DNS suffix for this system is plant.
If the checkbox had been selected with the settings shown in Figures and , a request for the IP address of mandy generates a query for mandy. The system does not, however, search example. No parent domains would be searched. Defining your own domain search list is the alternative to using the primary and connection DNS suffixes. This enables the Add, Edit, and Remove buttons. Click the Add button to add a DNS suffix to the search list.
Use the up and down arrows to define the search sequence. Domains are searched in order from the top to the bottom of the list. Figure shows an example domain search list.
With the configuration shown in Figure , a query for mandy would generate queries for mandy. No other domains would be searched. When a search list is provided, it must include all of the domains that you want searched. A query is also issued for the name exactly as it is typed in by the user, regardless of what is defined on the DNS tab. The DNS suffixes are only used to extend hostnames so that it is possible for a user to enter the names in a shorter form. They do not interfere with the normal processing of a query.
Of course, these client-side settings are only useful if you have a server running dynamic DNS. The basic configuration of the WINS client is very straightforward.
Use the up and down arrows to define the order in which the servers are used for registration and resolution. If no servers are specified in this pane, the client will use broadcasting for registration and resolution. Chapter 3 describes how WINS registration and resolution functions.
