I have two computers in my house. The one I normally use and my sister's. Both have had working internet for a while now but lately my sister's internet connection isn't working. I tried to reconfigure it automatically but now it doens't recognize the network.
I don't really know much about this stuff, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Re: No internet on second computer
A couple simple things:
Make sure the subnet mask for the second computer matches the rest of the computers on your home network.
Make sure that your second computer is getting a legit IP address from the DHCP server. If it has a 0.0.0.0, 127.something other, or the APIPA address then you know that's the problem.
Last, go into the command line and type ipconfig /all (or ifconfig if it's Mac or Linux) and see what it tells you about your network interface.

Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?
