My standalone pc keeps getting above error message. I have a 4 port router.
The others are working fine with Internet access. I tested a few things and
here are the findings:

1. The pc has a different IP address than others that have a non-routable
address.

2. Sometimes, the pc has the normal non-routable address but still cannot
access Internet.

3. Sometimes, it showed Internet is accessible but limited.

4. I checked wsock32.dll but do not have duplicates

5. I reinstall Windows XP but the situation is the same.

Would this be a NIC problem?

Thanks.
