Have you tried looking in the routers interface for issues? Does your ISP allow unlimited private IPs generated on your home network? Assign this computer a "free' IP in the Windows Intel applet then reboot.

Sorry I only understood about half of that.  I have comcast (xfinity) cable internet.  Unsure about overlapping IPs, and unsure how to determine that (I have an asus "dark knight" n66 router).  Don't know how many IPs my ISP allows, but why would they limit it?

How would I go about assigning this computer a free IP?

Thanks again for the help.
